Small company eligibility criteria, Companies Act 2013

According to section 2 definition of small company, paid up capital and turnover limit can go up to 10 crores and 100 crores respectively as may be prescribed but in Amendment rules (Specification of Definition details, 1st Feb 2021) it is stated that paid up capital and turnover shall not exceed two crores and twenty crores respectively. So if there is  a company with 3 crores paid up capital and 25 crores turnover, will it be categorized as small company?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the definition of a small company under the Companies Act 2013, specifically addressing the discrepancy between the Act's general limits and the 2021 amendment rules. While the Act allows for higher limits, the 2021 rules specify lower thresholds for paid-up capital and turnover. It's confirmed that a company exceeding either of these lower limits will not be classified as a small company.

Yes it is considered as a small company.
According to definition, they say that the limit can go up to 10 crores and 100 crores for PUSC and turnover respectively in future by notification by government.

Yes it will be considered
The company with 3Cr paid up capital & 25 Cr turnover will not be considered to be a small Company as both the limits are to be fulfilled at the same time. If any of the limit is exceeded it will not be considered to be a small company
