The optimized lattice parameters, independent elastic constants (C11, C12, and C44), bulk modules B, compressibility beta, shear modules G, and tetragonal shear modules G' are evaluated. The numerical estimates of the elastic parameters of the polycrystalline InCNi3 and CdCNi3 ceramics are performed. The band structures, total and site-projected l-decomposed densities of states, the shapes of the Fermi surfaces, the Sommerfeld coefficients, and the molar Pauli paramagnetic susceptibility for these anti-perovskites are obtained and analyzed in comparison with the available theoretical and experimental data. From our calculations, the stoichiometric CdCNi3 and InCN3 are very much alike in both structural and elastic properties but differ in electronic properties. For InCNi3, the defect-induced magnetism associated with the indium vacancies or Ni atoms substituting for In was found., shear modules G, and tetragonal shear modules G' are evaluated.
