It is very doubtful that he won the Hydaspes battle in India - he became Porus' henchman getting him new territories.

When he went on towards eastern India his army, after 10 years on the march, just wanted to take their loot and go home, and revolted and he was forced to turn back.

He died prematurely at the age of 33, preempting his plan to take western Europe and so claim to have conquered and ruled the then-known world.
