Firm is a seperate identity, and it cant be clubbed unless 1) funds flow / transaction relation between both the companies has been established to evade taxes. 2) common person is the only person who is responsible to run both the companies Or Clubbing is also possible if two units are sham or bogus or if there is unity of interest and practically they are one. I think there will not be any clubbing in your case.
