Go thru this forum and next thing is you'll be advising others on the steps involved.

Use this website: http://www.ustraveldocs.com/in/in-niv-visaapply.asp

The first thing is to pay the fees (either get someone to pay for you in India or pay yourself thru major banks in India: you cannot use US banks or US credit card)

Then fill out and submit your electronic DS160

After that schedule your 2 appointments - 1 for fingerprinting/photograph and other for actual interview.

 

Everything is clearly mentioned on the website.

 

It is highly advisable to schedule your appointments as soon as possible after arrival date in India so that if there are any hiccups, the processing will be going on while you are on planned vacation.

 

Good Luck!
