There is no explicit information shared by US embassy for dropbox appointments.
We think that dropbox appointments may also be cancelled due to the bans enforced by Indian government for public gatherings.
Restart date will be notified later when situation improves.

USCIS is working and no news of closing or delaying #H1B lottery in April 2020. Economic recession may affect H1B jobs with airlines announcing job cuts.
