Reopening of assessment must be confined to the income that formed the assessing officer's belief; other income noticed during reassessment may be assessed only if the originally alleged escaped income remains assessed as escaped.

Consequently the MAT computation in the reassessment was quashed as beyond the scope of proceedings.
