That being so, the entire assessment order, whether challenged in appeal as a whole or only in part, will merge in the appellate order irrespective of the points urged by the parties or decided by the appellate authority." We respectfully agree with the law laid down by the Division Bench in the aforementioned cases. We are definitely of the view that even if the matter which is subject to the notice was not subject to the assessment order or the appellate order, even then the order cannot be revised under section 10-B of the U.P.
