I was trying to express "as soon as I had started studying", trying to give
emphasis to the fact that "my starting" had been completed. But now I
wonder: In the {jIHaDchoHta'DI'}, is it possible for the {-ta'} to refer to
the {-choH}, or does it exclusively refer to the verb ?

oh yes, you're right ! I actually thought of using the {-DI'}, but some
wires in my mind short-circuited and I thought it was a type 7 suffix !

I can't believe I made this mistake..

Indeed ! I always seem to forget the existence of the {-lI'}.
