Need to apply for B1 but already having valid H1

[sureshbob]

Hi,
I have been working with a company ABC from April 2007 in India. In Oct 2007 I got my H1B visa stamped for a company XYZ of USA and is valid thru OCT 2010. I took a long vacation here in India and went to USA for the company XYZ and stayed there for 45 days. During the period of stay I got my SSN and also I got one payslip generated for two weeks. Becoz of the market slowdown I had to return back to India and joined the same company ABC in India. Now this company ABC wants to process B1/L1 for me, So is there any problem if I have to apply for B1 or L1 and is there any problem in the Embassy about the 45 days I spent in US on H1B while I was employed in a company ABC from April 2007?
Please suggest me on this asap

Hi,
I did not join a new company after coming back from US. I joined ABC in April 2007 and working till date.
In Sep 2008 I took leave for 45 days in ABC, Inida and went to US for company XYZ and came back India in OCT 2008 and joined back ABC after leave. Please suggest asap.
