Yes interest u/s 234B & 234C is applicable to MAT.
For your info MAT is payable u/s 115JB & not u/s 80C.

Accordingly, interest u/s 234B for default in payment of advance tax and interest u/s 234C for any deferment of advance tax shall be levied in respect of tax computed u/s 115JB also. The levy of interest u/s 234B and 234C on MAT payable was upheld by the Madras High Court in CIT Vs. Geetha Ramakrishna Mills P. Ltd (2006).
