yes that all the 7 or 8 conditions are to be satisfied in order to get the amalgamation tax free mentioned in 72A and section 79 is not applicable only in case o foreign companies in your case if there are accumilated losses as per IT records and ownership is changing by more than 51% then only section 79 applies and that accumilated loss to the extent of % of shares transfered will be disallowed. they can not be said a industrial undertaking or infra comp.
