17 March 2022 Buyer of immoveable property Received notice u/s 148 and subsequently u/s 143(2)

Cost of the property as per stamp value is more than agreement value. However buyer has paid to the seller as per agreement and nothing more

My question is how to proceed in this matter so that it can be proved that agreement value is correct ?
