 * I have configured the theme with the option locally and works perfectly. But 
   when I migrate that developed website into live server. The theme options value
   doesn’t work its return false while debugging the value. But still, the value
   in the database options table.

   false.

 * I have already clear the cache. It’s due to json mismatch in option value. But
   no idea how to fix these issue.

 * WordPress doesn’t usually store data in JSON but it does Serialize the data which
   does look an awful lot of like JSON. I’ve written a [similar explanation on WordPress Stack Exchange](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/169036/7355).
 * How did you do your site migration / How did you replace the urls? If the serialized
   URLs were improperly replaced and the serialized string length counts were not
   updated properly then these will have to be fixed manually or you’ll have to 
   go back to the original database and properly replace the serialized data using
   a specialized replacement plugin ( such as WPCLI or [Interconnect/it](https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/)).
 * What is the JSON mismatch you’re referring to?
