Here, our angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiment reveled that the surface band structure of the 1T-VSe2 host electronic states that was not predicted or probed before. Earlier claims to support charge density wave phase can be all explained in terms of these new findings. Its Fermi surface found to be not gaped at any point of the Brillouin zone and warping effect on the electronic structure, attributed to the lattice distortion previously, is due to the different dispersion of the multiple bands. Based on these new findings and interpretations, charge density wave induced modification on the electronic structure of 1T-VSe2 needs to be reconstructed in the future studies.
