Legal notice by broker for not paying the commission to him


17-Oct-2023 (In Property Law)
Hi, I have sold my flat recently.My property broker, who is also the broker for the buyer party of my flat, has sent me a legal notice for not paying the commission as discussed. There is no written agreement between me and broker, only 1-2 times on whatsapp it has been told. I have paid partial amount to him and told he deserved that much only. Now he has sent me a legal notice ( by email and by courier) mentioning that I owe him the pending amount and IPC 420 will be applicable to the case he will file against me and my spouse ( we are joint seller) . 1- If there is no written agreement still case is valid? only whatsapp chat is evidence. 2- Should I reply to him legally? 3- Is this a strong case against me? ( I am not staying in India)
