H1/H4 Extension or Passport Renewal

Hi,

Below is the status and expiry dates 

My Visa - H1B valid untill 10/2017

My Wife's visa - H4 valid untill 10/2017

My Wife's Indian Passport - valid untill Dec-2017

 

Considering, H1 premium processing is being shut for next foreseeable future, should I first renew my wife;s passport and then apply for H1/H4 extension?

If yes, does Indian consulate provide renewed passport only with less validity? I've personally seen for one of my friend, the renewed Indian Passport had the same validity as his visa expiry date.

 

Is there any precedent for this? or I'm only guy who has this issue?
