Re: Disabling sharing tab in client systems

For the OP power users can also share folders so you may want to look at
removing them from the power users or administrators group and making sure
that they are only regular users. Locally on one of the computer run the
command net user username using the actual username to see the groups that
the user belongs to on the computer. Also make sure the user is not a member
of a domain group that is a member of the local administrators or power
users group on his computer. A regular user can not create shares on their
computer.

I'm not giving users the admin accounts. They are the users of a group
abc,
and I want to disable sharing tab for this group members. Please help me
on
this issue.

It is, arguably, more simple to just not give then admin accounts.
If they are admins then there is nothing you can do to prevent them
from sharing out something if they really want to do so.
