A TD(50-50) calculation shows that at the triplet structure, the lowest triplet state (3A') has an energy 1.42 eV below the singlet state.
E(RPA) =  -2485.32038649, which is now only 9 kcal/mol higher than the singlet energy at the optmized singlet structure, and is 10 kcal/mol lower than the triplet energy at the singlet structure. If the energy of this triplet state can be further optimized, it may have a chance to be the electronic ground state.

If we turn the NO down and keeps the Cs structure, a TD(50-50) calculation shows that the lowest triplet state (3A') has an energy 1.57 eV below the singlet state. E(RPA) =  -2485.34102225, which is now 3.9 kcal/mol lower than the optimized singlet state. Since the ZPE of the triplet state ( 167.2 kcal/mol) is ~1.8 kcal/mol lower than that of the singlet state (169.0), the triplet is now 5.7 kcal/mol lower than the singlet state.

However, a TD(50-50) calculation shows that at the singlet structure, there is a low-lying triplet state (3A') with a energy 0.93 eV or 21.4 kcal/mol lower than the  singlet state. E(RPA) =  -2501.60983405
Unfortunately, this state cannot be found with a simple triplet state calculation as mentioned above.
A similar calculation for P(2-py)3Mo(CO)(NO+)2 does not show a low-lying triplet state and the lowest triplet state is 1.75 eV higher in energy.

A TD(50-50) calculation at the above B3LYP/6-31+G* structure finds a low-lying triplet state that is 1.42 eV below the singlet. E(RPA) = -2501.56916355 and it is 4.0 kcal/mol lower than that of the optimized singlet state. Interestingly, the energy is significantly higher than the triplet energy  calculated at the singlet structure. The geom. with NO pointing down needs to be checked

A TD(50-50) calculation at the above B3LYP/6-31+G* structure with NO pointing down finds a low-lying triplet state that is 1.79 eV below the singlet. E(RPA) = -2501.59087848 and it is 9.7 kcal/mol lower than that of the optimized singlet state.

B3LYP/6-31G* triplet OPT:  -2388.22186
S-T: 2.2 kcal/mol

Right now it seems that using TD(50-50) can make prediction that is consistent with experiments.
However, we need to check if this is an artifact of using different basis set. So we also make calculation using SDD for Cr.

P(2-py)3Cr(CO)2NO+ (using B3LYP/6-31G* geom.)
singlet energy at singlet structure : -1527.92751580 (0.0 kcal/mol)
triplet energy at triplet structure: -1527.91660998 (6.8 kcal/mol)
triplet energy with NO down: -1527.93805818 (-6.6 kcal/mol)

P(2-py)3Cr(CO)(NO+)2 (using B3LYP/6-31G* geom.)
singlet energy at singlet structure: -1544.16366672 (0.0 kcal/mol)
triplet energy at singlet structure: -1544.20877941 (-28.3 kcal/mol)
triplet energy at triplet structure: -1544.16167 (1.3 kcal/mol)

So, the calculation with SDD for Cr seems to be consistent with the 6-31G* results.

A TD(50-50) calculation at the above structure finds a low-lying triplet state that is 1.12 eV below the singlet. E(RPA) = -1525.42132 and it is 10.3 kcal/mol higher than that of the optimized singlet state. This implies for P(2-py)3Mo(CO)(NO)22+, the S-T gap might also be small. The geom. with NO pointing down needs to be checked.
