Personally, I would do it if I was in your shoes. September is getting close, and even though you have only a 3 year petition with Employer C, I can easily imagine a situation where you will get extensions/transfers for the full six years.
There are many situations where getting a new H-1B visa sticker is extremely inconvenient.
In your case, you have the time, you can easily travel to the consulate, and you can afford the visa fee.
I say go for it.
It may never be as convenient to do in the future as it is for you now.
Thanks for the valuable Inputs, was a great help to me

Upon admission, the CBP officer will grant you authorized period of stay consistent with the petition (Form I-797), not the passport vignette (visa sticker).
Any suggestions if i should go for re-stamping with my new I-797 (Since I am in India only) along with my dependent visa stamping.

I have stamped valid H1B till Sep,2015 which was filed by Employer A.Meanwhile i have joined Employer B and now i am with employer C. Employer C initiated my visa transfer process and is complete and i again got it for 3 years.As i am in India only and have not traveled yet to US.
My Query is that since my stamped visa is expiring on Sep,2015 can i go for re-stamping of new Visa.If i enter US on the stamped visa I-94 issued to me will be till sep,30 only.
The reason i was going for re-stamping was because my dependent is not having H4 stamped.
