There is no reason to run the grep remotely.



plink -batch user@192.168.91.12 -P 22 -pw test@123 free | grep "Mem:"


Note that you should not give the command to plink inside a subshell, ( ... ).



I don't know anything about Windows' cmd.exe, but you could also try



plink -batch user@192.168.91.12 -P 22 -pw test@123 sh -c "free | grep 'Mem:'"

    Since (free;) worked for them, I'm guessing they didn't run it in bash, zsh or dash (all of which complain about the parentheses). Given it's part of Putty, probably they ran it from cmd.exe or powershell. So piping the output outside of plink might not work as expected. (Not sure of the semantics of pipes in cmd.exe)
