Form validation Angular 4 | multi-field validation | Set error on empty Field depending on other field

I have a form where two fields ('From date' and 'To Date') are there along with other fields.
Requirement:

User can provide only 'From Date'

If both date are given 'From date' must NOT be greater than 'To Date'; if given 'To Date' will be underlined with Red.

If one provides 'To Date' only, then the 'From Date' will be underlined with Red.

To do this I used a frombuilder 'SrchForm' like this:

myForm(){
this.srchGrp = this.SrchForm.group({
//other FormcontrolNames
from_date : '', // from_date controlname for 'From Date' field
to_date : '', // to_date controlname for 'To Date' field
}, {validator: this.fromNtoValidate('from_date', 'to_date')})
}


And,

fromNtoValidate(from_date, to_date){
return (group: FormGroup)=>{
let fromdate = group.controls['from_date'],
let todate = group.controls['to_date'],

if(formdate.value && todate.value){ // if both date provided
if (formdate.value > todate.value){
return todate.setErrors({'incorrect' : true});
}
}

if(!formdate.value && todate.value){ // **if Todate provided only
console.log("only Todate Given");
return fromdate.setErrors({'incorrect' : true});
}
}
}


**if Todate provided only part is failing to red-mark the Form Date field though it's printing only Todate Given as expected. If I try to set error on todate instead of 'fromdate', then it's working fine but not working on fromdate.

**if Todate provided only

Form Date

only Todate Given

todate

fromdate

Please suggest me what to do here and mark where I'm doing wrong?
