I have generated code by mib2c using mib2c.scalar.conf. and used the float 
variable to pass the value.

I have read in net-snmp guids that Opaque is not used now days. Will it be any 
problem if I used OCTET STRING for float values.

See 'agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/loadave.c' for an example
(Search for LOADAVEFLOAT)

How have you implemented this object?
What does the code look like?

SNMP doesn't actually support Floating point objects.
The Net-SNMP suite includes a pseudo-standard extension
mechanism for this, by wrapping the float value within an
OPAQUE wrapper.
The library should handle this automatically, as long
as you register the MIB object as ASN_OPAQUE_FLOAT.
