1) In your Project , first create the following files under the following path

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet_2_0" prefix="portlet" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://liferay.com/tld/portlet" prefix="liferay-portlet" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://liferay.com/tld/theme" prefix="liferay-theme" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://liferay.com/tld/ui" prefix="liferay-ui" %>

<%@page import="com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ParamUtil" %>
<%@page import="java.util.ArrayList"%>
<%@page import="java.util.List"%>
<liferay-theme:defineObjects />
 
//A renderURL is created because we need to render a jsp page you need to use //renderURL we can also  pass parameters if required
 
<liferay-portlet:renderURL var="portletURL"/>
 
<%
//We must Specify a default value for tabs. In this example it is sunday. Else it //will throw an error.
String tabValue = ParamUtil.getString(request, "tab", "sunday");
String tabsURL = "/jsps/" + tabValue.trim() + ".jsp";
String tabNames="Sunday,Monday,Tuesday" ;
String tabVal="sunday,monday,tuesday" ;
if(permissionChecker.isCompanyAdmin(themeDisplay.getCompanyId())){
tabNames+=",Admin" ;
tabVal+=",admin" ;
}
%>
 
<liferay-ui:tabs
names="<%=tabNames%>"
tabsValues="<%=tabVal%>"
param="tab"
url="<%= portletURL %>"
/>
 
//this wud render the tab page
<c:import url="<%= tabsURL %>"></c:import>

Here is how it would Look Like
