Hello @Dinu_Arya 

Please try updating the cq:dialog of the child page template. Use the same node structure as you parent page cq:dialog and add the property nodes that are not needed for current page with following

Parent/base template
<testprop cq:showOnCreate="{Boolean}true"
          jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                                        sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/checkbox"
                                              defaultChecked="false"
                                              fieldDescription="Check this box"
                                              name="./testprop"
                                              text="Disable?"
                                              value="true"/>

Child template

<testprop jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
              sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden"/>

Hi @Dinu_Arya 

We need to use Sling Resource Merger Properties of AEM. If we need to hide a tab on a child page component, use sling:hideResource="{Boolean}true" property on the child page component tabs.

Suppose if we have tab called custom-tab on parent node.

<custom-tab
  jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
  jcr:title="Custom Tab"
  sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/fixedcolumns">
  <custom-property
    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
    sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
    fieldLabel="Custom Property"
    name="./customProperty"/>
</custom-tab>

and If we don't want this tab to appear on inherited page components, add sling:hideResource="{Boolean}true" like below

<custom-tab
  jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
  jcr:title="Custom Tab"
  sling:hideResource="{Boolean}true"
  sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/fixedcolumns">
</custom-tab>
