This is correct and a feature of Fortran 2003.

Another related feature of Fortran 2003 is for allocatable arrays, where you could say:

integer, allocatable, dimension(:) :: a

a = [3,4,5]
and a would get automatically allocated to the proper shape, deallocating any previous allocation.  In Intel Fortran, this behavior is NOT the default and requires an option /assume:realloc_lhs.   However, the use you described with the derived type components does not require the option.
