It is abetment 109 r/w 302 - punishment vide S.115.

This is a sure shot case of cognizable crime and no way A can defend himself.... so A would be charge with IPC section 302 but as he di not directly involved in murder so the charges would be filed as per abetment 109 r/w 302 and C wud be prosecuted under sec 302. That is what my opinion....
