You add flowing command in jsf page:

  <p:tabView id="outputTab" activeIndex="#{ajaxBean.count}">

Change of ajaxBean.java flowing :

  @ManagedBean(name = "ajaxBean")
  @SessionScoped
  public class AjaxBean implements Serializable {

  public AjaxBean() {
  }
  private boolean input;
  private List<String> chcekItem = new ArrayList<String>();
  private int count;

  public void setAction(String action) {
  input = true;
  if (getChcekItem().isEmpty()) {
    count++;
    getChcekItem().add(action);
    System.out.println("The item " + action + " is Successfully Added to array");
  } else {

    for (String abce : getChcekItem()) {
        if (abce.equals(action)) {
            System.out.println(abce + "=" + action);
            input = false;
            //We can jump out of the loop here since we already found a matching value
            break;
        }
    }

    if (input) {
        count++;
        getChcekItem().add(action);
        System.out.println("The item " + action + " is Successfully Added to array");
    } else {
        System.out.println("The item " + action + " is Exist");
    }
    }


   }
    private String close;

   public void closeTab(TabCloseEvent closeAction) {
  close = closeAction.getTab().getId();
  for (String abce : getChcekItem()) {
    if (abce.equals(close)) {
        count--;
        System.out.println(close + " is remove from Array");
        getChcekItem().remove(abce);

        //We can jump out of the loop here since we already found a matching value
        break;
      }
      }  
      }

     public String editAction() {
           return null;
                    }


        public List<String> getChcekItem() {
           return chcekItem;
           }


       public void setChcekItem(ArrayList<String> chcekItem) {
           this.chcekItem = chcekItem;
          }


       public boolean isInput() {
            return input;
          }

       public void setInput(boolean input) {
                this.input = input;
         }

       public int getCount() {
           return count-1;
        }


      public void setCount(int count) {
       this.count = count;
      }

     }
