Reverse charge mechanism

Dear Experts, Could you please guide me on below issue please?
Our top level managerial people have spent few expenses during official visit at abroad in foreign currency. The expenses are in the nature of hotel bills, motor car expenses, other miscellaneous purchases in foreign currency incurred in abroad through Credit Card. As per Rules of Service tax, if any expenses are incurred specifically by employee for their own use, Service tax thereon will not be allowed as Cenvat Credit. Now my issue is that, As we are making Credit Card payment in INR towards these expense incurred in foreign currency , do we need to pay service tax on these expenses under reverse charge?
