Defination of Small Company does not include Free Reserves. CARO Act 2016 will not be applicable to Private Company having paid up share capital+ Free Reserves exceeding 50 Lakhs, and Turnover exceeding 5 crores and outstanding Loan and borrowing exceeding 25 Lakhs. In the above case paid up share capital+ Free Reserves is exceeding 50 Lakhs. and borrowing is also exceeding 25 Lakh. so CARO will not be applicable.
