As per serial no 2 of notification 12/2017-CTR transfer of a going concern or a part thereof is exempt. But, in your case it is lease for a specific period of time, i.e. ownership of the PQR & XYZ entity does not change.
I would not be commenting on direct tax implications.
Under GST the transaction may be liable as any transaction not specifically covered under goods is a service, and general/residuary clause under classification may be applicable. (HSN 999799 - 18%)
Supply of goods through PQR & XYZ would attract GST at goods rate and GST returns to be filed under those companies. Eligible credit against expenses also to be considered in the respective entities GST returns.
PQR & XYZ entities would be discharging the liability for lease collected from ABC who will be eligible for credit.
Good question, had to go through lot of info to reach conclusion.

Dear CA akshay Ji
"Now ABC co. does business operation of PQR & XYZ on its own name ie ABC"
So as per the querist business is done in the name of ABC co. , thus you still think that the goods being supplied by PQR but in the name of ABC , the supply is accounted in books of PQR . ?????

Dear Pankaj ji, thanks for pointing out, missed that query.
If PQR & ABC are related entities then the situation gets complicated.
If related or not, It is better than PQR supplies goods to ABC and then ABC supplies it forward.
If not, PQR will have accumulated credits and ABC will have cash outflow - not an optimum scenario.

But as ABC company controlling & operating the business of PQR & XYX co. (both manufacturing & trading).
so in this case the whole business of PQR & XYZ co. is being handled & control by ABC co. , that means the ABC co. is using his GSTN to carry on the business of PQR & XYZ co.
1. Now will ABC need to add place of business to his registration certificate ???
2. what about if the business of PQR & XYZ is not registered in the same state where ABC co. is registered ???
In my view this can be done only when the business of PQR & Xyz co get transferred to ABC co.
else ABC co. cannot be supply any goods or services in his own name.
Note : PQR & XYZ company has lease out their business to ABC co.

Since ABC has taken units of PQR and XYZ on lease and is carrying on business from their premises then ABC will have to show its place of business in these premises also.
If states are different then ABC will have to take new registration for that state,.
Since Goods manufactured by ABC belongs to ABC any sale of such goods will attract liability of GST and such liability will be of ABC and not PQR & XYZ
PQR & XYZ will be charging GST on lease charges @ 18%
