you have to check the date format in DB.I think it will be year-month-date.You cant get data until the both format matches.

try this

SQL

select * from Purchase v
where convert(varchar,cast( v.DocDate as datetime),100) <= convert(varchar,cast('Sep 26 2014 12:00AM' as datetime),100)
and convert(varchar,cast( v.DocDate as datetime),100) >= convert(varchar,cast('Aug 27 2014 12:00AM' as datetime),100)

Wait, you're selecting documents that are simultaneously stamped after September 26th and before August 27th? Only if they do that quantum time travel.

UPDATE: Sorry, I guess that was more of a snarky comment than solution. Here is code that should get you your results (swapped your operators):

C#

select * from Purchase v 
where cast( v.DocDate as datetime) <= cast('2014-09-26 12:00:00.000'as datetime ) 
and cast( v.DocDate as datetime) > cast('2014-08-10 12:00:00.000' as datetime)
