Getting "Unzipped size must be smaller than 99912626 bytes" after deploying the lambda function even if the limit is 250MB according to aws

Question

I am deploying my lambda function written in node v12 on North Virginia (us-east-1) region. And I am getting this error saying Unzipped size must be smaller than 99912626 bytes. Which is basically around 95MB. According to this article the unzipped code limit in lambda is 250MB. I don't understand what is the issue here.

I am deploying the same code in Ireland (eu-west-1) region and it's getting deployed fine. The problem is occurring in North Virginia (us-east-1).

I am using gitlab ci/cd for deployment and serverless npm module.
