Madara himself said that he gained rinnegan a moment before he died. He had this rinnegan while still alive...fighting Hashirama.I believe he died fighting Hashirama. Because if he survived his battle with Hashirama, then he must have been killed by other shinobi or died by other means? Nothing is heard about that madara after their battle. It will be easier for Madara's plans to kill hashirama and get his DNA, but he cannot defeat the 1st hokage. Well, still a lot is yet to be revealed about these mysteries.

Kabuto: "I think im right that after your battle with Shodai, you didn't die did you?...Am I wrong?"
Madara: "So thats why, you've certainly prepared well. Do you know our plan aswell?" (which means Kabuto's original question was correct).
So its clear Madara never died when he fought Hashirama, he died later on. Madara himself said so. Since Madara got Rinnegan shortly before his death, it is clear he never had it whilst facing Hashirama. Nobody really knows how Madara died, it will probably be revealed later on. It would have been long after his fight with Hashirama since he still needed to meet Nagato who wasn't even born at that time.
Yeh I agree it would have been easier to kill Hashirama then get his DNA, but his main focus wasn't killing Hashirama. He just wanted to survive and get his DNA, which he managed to do. So in a sense, Madara lost the battle but he won the war.
