Reset SMC not working ?

I am trying to reset the SMC on my MBP mid-2012 but it is not working.

When I try it nothing happens and the MBP does not power on.

Works fine when I just use the power button.

I was able to reset NVRAM fine.

I am using "Shift-Option-control" key while pressing the power button to reset SMC.
