Thank you for responding,
It's great to have you back 😉
The topics listed will help in improving the battery's performance, However you may re-start the notebook, keep tapping F2, and run a test with the battery to check if it is good. 🙂
Keep me posted. 🙂

I also deployed batter check from HP Diagnostics tools at boot time and it showed good health.
I think some kind of program is preventing it from charging above 83

Sir, I went through the link you provided and ran HP Diagnostic tool at the boot time. On running battery check i received following results. Please note that it gave an error (Blown fuse 42) when i ran it for the first time with Charger connected.
But then i unpluged chrager and ran it again and the test was successfull this time. What does this indicate ??
