Admin Client returning state=Dead in DescribeGroup Command

Hi,
I am trying to fetch a consumer group description using kafka-python client. The returned describe response shows the state=Dead and doesnt list the committed offsets for the group. 
I can see this group in the kafka-consumer-group CLI command and even the committed offsets. 
What could be the reasons for getting a Dead state?
Thanks,Chirag
