Hiren,

You appear to be asking about flying to the VOR to begin the procedure, then flying outbound for the procedure turn. You didn't provide the entire chart, but if this is what you're describing, then your actions are fairly straight-forward.

You said you're using an EHSI display. With this in mind, set the inbound course. Forget selecting back course, as it's irrelevant, in this case. Set the inbound course and fly it.

If you have an EHSI, set the inbound course regardless of whether you're flying the front or back course, and you'll always have normal sensing.

Someone had asked about flying a backcourse outbound for a departure. This does happen in the Aspen, Colorado (USA) departure.
