The events of his supposed defeat of King Porus of Hydaspes at
the Battle of the Hydaspes River are strange - it was a close
battle, and after Alexander 'won', he inexplicably gave back to
Porus his kingdom of Hydaspes, and also donated to Porus his
astounded ally King Taxiles' kingdom of Taxila.
He then went on doing conquests for Porus to add to the latter's
kingdom.
It sounds more like Hydaspes River was a stalemate at best, if
not a defeat for Alexander, given Alexander's obsequious approach
to his alleged victim, but of course his tame historians are not
going to admit it. It will remain a mystery.
