Your question focuses on 3 main aspects -
1) Agreement of the clauses, subject to acceptance
2) Conformity of the document with the legal system
3) Comprehensiveness of the document in point of detail i.e.., all relevant details that need to be covered in the particular document should be covered with considerate value of the legal (Stamp) paper

However, an agreement which is not stamp-duty paid or registered is still valid enough under the Contract Act
