Is there any software which can alert me when battery is 100 % ? I do not want to keep charging further causing battery damage. I use 16.04 LTS.

You Dont Need To Be Notified. I have Dell laptop and I keep it plugged in all the time and I dont bother about the 100 %. Because the hardware has built-in safety against over charge. Furthermore upon wanderinig through internet, and through personal experience I've discovered that for long healthy battery life:
Once you unplug after a full charge let it dfrain upto atleast 60% before plugging it again. That also applies for battery level more than 60%.
let it drain to critical level atleast once in six months before plugging in.
A healthy battery gives Average of 2-7 hrs.
Average laptop battery life is 4 years max(that is alot).
