As per SECTION 2 (47) of the CGST Act 2017,

"exempt supply" means supply of any goods or services or both which attracts nil rate of tax or which may be wholly exempt from tax under Section 11, or under Section 6 of the Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, and includes non-taxable supply.

Whereas, NIL rated Goods means they are 0% rated Goods or Services.
Nil Rated It is the supply of goods and services that have 0% GST.
Example: Grains, salt, jaggery etc.
Exempted It is the supply of goods and services that does not attract GST and allows no claim on ITC.

Items exempt from GST are the commodities that have not been included in GST yet.

Nil-rated items are the items which are included in GST and have been put in the 0% tax slab.
