In tatpādānuddhyāta in line 4 Sastri says the ā of tpā is "obliterated". There is no trace whatsoever visible of an ā mātrā here, though the mātrā is clear in the Asirgadh seal.

--><!--

The ā of mahā in l6 is "not to be seen" according to Sastri; I believe there is an ā mātrā both here and on the Asirgadh drawing, but it's a plain horizontal one with a downward hook rather than an ornate erect mātrā.
