Where reassessment is initiated under s.147 on recorded reasons, the AO must first make an addition on the very issue forming the basis of those reasons; if the AO accepts the explanation and makes no addition on the recorded-reasons issue, no other addition can be made on unrelated matters, and Expln. 3 to s.147 does not cure this defect.
