It is found that the band gap can be increased by $Sb$ doping and it is monotonically increased by $Se$ doping. In ternary compounds, the change of the conduction band structure is more significant, as compared to the change of valence band. The band degeneracy of valence band maximum is maintained to be 6 in binaries and ternaries.
