H1B Stamping with old H-1B stamp but new I-797

In May 2011, I got my H1B transferred from Company A to COmpany B where I am working currently.I just got a new offer from Company C and they have filed for my H1B transfer and I'm expecting approval within 1 week from today.Now on my passport I have H1B visa stamping of Company A till

April 2013.I got this stamping done at U.S consulate in Mumbai when I made a trip to India in November 2010. Now I am planning to make a trip to India in January 2012 and I will be with Company C at that time.My question is, Do I need to go to U.S Consulate again for visa stamping as I have changed my employer from A to B to C? OR I don't need to go to U.S Consulate as H1 visa (with stamping from Company A) is still valid till April 2013? In that case I would only need to show the visa office my new I-797 from Company C when I return back to U.S.A after my vacation is complete,correct? Any help in solving this dilemma will be greatly appreciated!Thank you very much ahead of time for your responses!!
