Clarification on CASSCF Single-Point Energy Calculation for A″ State

Dear Molcas developers,

I have a question regarding a CASSCF single-point energy calculation. I am interested in computing the S₃ excited state, which corresponds to a πσ* state of A″ symmetry. Since the molecule has Cs symmetry, I set Symmetry = 2 in my input.

Could you please confirm whether the following input is appropriate for correctly describing this state?

&RASSCF
Title
Benzenemolecule.
Spin
    1
Symmetry
    2
Nactel
    10 0 0
Inactive
    47 5
Ras2
    2 8
CiRoot
    1 4; 4
LumOrb
ALTEr = 3; 1 48 52; 1 49 53; 2 5 6
&GRID_IT
  All

I would appreciate it if you could let me know whether this setup will correctly target the S₃ state of A″ symmetry.

Best regards,
Lukhmanul
