Abstract: C-projective structures are analogues of projective structures in the complex setting. The maximal dimension of the Lie algebra of c-projective symmetries of a complex connection on an almost complex manifold of C-dimension n>1 is classically known to be 2n2+4n. We prove that the submaximal dimension is equal to 2n22n+4+2delta3,n. If the complex connection is minimal (encoded as a normal parabolic geometry), the harmonic curvature of the c-projective structure has three components and we specify the submaximal symmetry dimensions and the corresponding geometric models for each of these three pure curvature types. If the connection is non-minimal, we introduce a modified normalization condition on the parabolic geometry and use this to resolve the symmetry gap problem. We prove that the submaximal symmetry dimension in the class of Levi-Civita connections for pseudo-K"ahler metrics is 2n22n+4, and specializing to the K"ahler case, we obtain 2n22n+3. This resolves the symmetry gap problem for metrizable c-projective structures.
