Depends on how you are going to re-ENTER USA (L1/H1 stamp). Status changes are not automatic. If you enter in L1, having a previous H1 approval doesn't allow you to start a job in H1. You need to file a "change of status" petition, showing previous H1 approval and current L1 status.
Also note that at the time of re-entering using L1 visa, you should have proper intentions of working for the L1 company in L1 status. The other option is to appy for H1 stamping, when you are in India, and enter in H1 status. -Morchu Last edited by morchu; 04-15-2009 at 11:13 AM.

Note that MohanKB mentioned 2008 H1. So his H1 I assume is not for "future" start date.
What you mentioned applies only if H1 is approved with a future start date. -Morchu Quote:

You hold a "status" inside the US. The moment you return the I-94 at exit, you do not officially hold a status. When you are in India, you can appear for whatever visa that you wish to maintain status in US upon returning provided you qualify for it.
