That is a mystery. He also gave the kingdom of his own ally the King of Taxila to Poros.

One explanation is that Poros really defeated Alexander rather than vice versa, or at least it was a draw and Alexander was paying his way out. He also did some extra conquests for Poros.

Whether his victory was cover up Propaganda by contemporary and later historians is uncertain, but it is hard to cook up a rational answer to these questions other than that.
