As I tried to understand the provisions of Madhya Pradesh VAT Act as enumerated in the query, I am of the opinion that nothing is required to be read in isolation.

Sales tax which is required to be paid by the selling dealer is required to be paid by the purchasing dealer by way of TDS. Once the purchasing dealer deduct TDS and make the payment to the government as per the Section 26-A(1) read with Rule 45A-9, selling dealer is free from its tax liability.

As long as the question of purchase tax is concerned in my view the provisions of Section 9 read with Section 10 are clear and I find no ambiguity therein. The goods are tax paid, either directory or indirectly and hence, no separate purchase tax would be levied purchase of such goods where TDS has been deducted and paid.
