Hi @Harshal_satpute,

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions.  I read your post about the unit shutting down even when the battery is fully charged. It will be a genuine pleasure to assist you.

I would require more information regarding this to assist you better.

• What happens when the adapter is plugged in?
• Does the computer shut down even then?
• Is the computer shutting down randomly only with battery and no charger connected?

Please try a few steps to correct the situation.

Please do a hard reset. steps:

• Power down the computer and unplug the charger. Then remove the battery only if it is a removable one.
• Hold down the power button of the unit for 15 seconds to discharge static electrical charges inside the machine.
• Replace the battery and reconnect the charger.

Please run diagnostics on the computer by visiting this link: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03467259 Please perform all the system diagnostics and especially the one on the battery. There is a video that shows you how to do it. Please make a note of any failure code. Please follow the option “Opening the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI)” from the above link.

It may be a battery issue and the battery may need to be replaced if the computer does not shut down when the charger is plugged in.
