First your calling wayyyy to much. Cut it down to twice a day. Once int the early morning and once in the late evening.

It might be a while until you get an interview date. I haven't seen two months of schedules put out at at the same time for Mumbai but it was almost posted at the same time for October or November....that just tells you how busy they are. With the US holidays and Indian holidays running rampant towards the end of the year this means more days the consulate is closed on business days...another not good sign. Be patient. I bet you will get an December date, but don't be surprised if you get a late Decmber to early Janurary date either. Best of luck to you.
