Hello Jai!
Thank you for your inquiry.
This file is an HTML document in UTF-7 encoding without Byte-Order Mark (BOM). Aspose.Words cannot recognize it natively. As a workaround you can try the following code snippet:

string text = File.ReadAllText("Test.doc", Encoding.UTF7);
byte[] textBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(text);
using (MemoryStream strm = new MemoryStream(textBytes))
{
    Document doc = new Document(strm);
    doc.Save(@"Test200\out.doc";
}

If you have many files and all in UTF-7 then it is appropriate for you. But if all files are different loading them all using the same universal code could be a complex task.
This issue is known in our defect database as #3955. We’ll notify you on any progress or when it is fixed.
Regards,
