Sukhi, if it has a new battery for sure, I would replace the dock connector next. It is possible that this is the reason for not charging. Here is the guide for it. Should that not work, take a look at the battery connector, make sure it is properly installed and that the solder points are okay etc. Should a new dock connector not work as well, then you are having issues with the SMD components on the board. To fix those you will need some special tools and lots of soldering experience. Hope this helps, good luck.
