Thanks for the response.

It actually has the Carta screen , at least this is what is says out of the box (bought it through Amazon Warehouse deals) . It was build after 2015 i even installed the Google Play Update on it , so i guess it has the new Carta screen. It does have a more white screen instead of the yellowish screen that Kobo Aura has.
