Hello Himanshu
VMD keeps the chain id column the way it was when it read in the file,
unless the format is slightly off, which appears to be the case for your
file. The extreme right column is not the pdb chain id column it is the
NAMD segment column and only means anything in NAMD or VMD from what I can
tell.
If you could send your pdbfile that was generated in solvate I can take a
look at it to better understand your questions.
