I want to know is it the genral behaviour of all UAC?
There are a lot of UAs out there. Its hard to say what the "general"
behavior is.
because as per RFC, c=0 has not been recommended for RTCP purposes,
anyway in these cases, we might need RTCP reports also,
The use of c=0 is an old (now deprecated) action in response to a
request to initiate hold. The mechanism still exists, and is still
important for some call flows unrelated to hold. There is of course
nothing to prevent a UA from using it when initiating Hold, and the peer
should do something reasonable in response.
Why cant we have one more attribute "a=hold" which indicates its meant for
hold and not for one-way media audio stream,
I think mostly because hold is a feature, and IETF doesn't standardize
features. The existing directionality attributes are mechanisms that may
be used for hold or other things.
If you introduced a hold attribute, then there would be a lot of call to
have different flavors of hold - one way, two way, with music, without
music, etc. And of course you would need to get into the precise
semantics of hold.
As things stand, Hold is a local feature on an endpoint. The
corresponding signaling should not really be considered as signaling
"hold" - it is only signaling the desired media behavior. I think there
is no expectation, or need, for the other UA, or servers in the path to
be able to determine that the call is "held".

You can use c=IN IP4 0.0.0.0 to indicate hold in addition to a-sendonly.

Subject: [Sip-implementors] Hold SDP
Hi,
As per RFC 3264, user agent indicate hold by sending "sendonly attribute
(assuming sendrecv mode stream).
So when UAS receives this SDP, it should respond with "recvonly"
attribute.
But same mechanism can be used by user agent if he wants to play
announcement or music to user, so it can send "sendonly" attribute for
media stream.
I mean if it simply wants one-way connection (this is not hold).
For 3PCC (as B2B), if it wants to provide MOH service, how can it
differentiate between two SDP because it will play MOH only in the first
scenario when user press hold.
Is there any other way where user agent can indicate that this is hold
scenario and not one-way audio.
Thanks,
Udit
