I got my H-1 stamped in Nov 2001 with a company say "A" now another company people "B" wants to transfer my H-1 with them but I have never worked with "A". I am in India and have never been to USA.
My questions are

1) What all I need when I land USA Airport?

2) Can my H-1 be transfered to "B" without the taking any help
   from "A"?
 
Since you never worked for A,

You have to get a new H1 from B, if you intend to get the visa from B before entering US.
If you enter US with company A visa, and you later transfer to company B, you might be asked to give paystubs from company A.

Generally (for most of the visas) the guideline from INS is that you have to wait for 90 days(from your date of entry) before transferring visa.
Not sure whether 90 day rule is a hard and fast one for H1 transfers.
