Its not clear

Your query is not clear. 

However, I presume that you are to pay for the foreign trips of doctors who prescribe the medicines you are marketing.  You  want to take that amount on a monthly basis from your manufacturer and then return it to be spent on doctors' trip.  I wonder why you should resort to this confusing and circuituous route.  Just ask the manufacturer to pay the doctors directly.  If you take the money as your commission, then you have to pay tax on it.  Your returning the money will not have any impact on your tax liability.
