Hi,
the PDB format doesn't support partial charges, so I suspect the one you write
is not a standard one and will not be recognized by the OpenBabel parser.
Therefore, when generating the Mol2 file, the default charges (Gasteiger, I
believe) will be assigned.
My advice would be to convert directly the MOPAC output (which is supported)
into Mol2, and see if the proper charges are kept.

Subject: [Open Babel] Atomic charge changed during conversion from pdb to
mol2
Dear open babel community
I used MOPAC to minimize the ligand and obtain the output in PDB format with
atomic charges. When I converted the PDB file to mol2 using babel the atomic
charges were found to be modified. Can anyone help me to preserve the
charges during conversion or any other mode of way to obtain the ligand
output with atomic charges preserved? Below am pasting the PDB file and mol2
file for reference.
