L1&L2 Individual Approved... Earlier Blanket rejected.
Hi,
I want to thank this forum and all who have shared their experience.

I went for L1 blanket in Mar 2011 and the VO refused my visa indicating that i should apply for individual petition. This means that the VO was not convinced with my answer for granting me L1 status.
Later my Co. filed an individual petition which got approved and then again appeared for the interview.
The questions asked by Visa officer are as follows:
VO: What is your salary in India/US?
ME: **** ***
VO: Have you traveled outside India?
ME: Yes, i have been to Europe.
Visa officer saw the visa stamps
VO: Mam, when did you get married?
Wife: ****
VO: Congratulations, Your visa has been approved.
