In case of NIL rated supply, the tariff is at NIL rate without any exemption notification but Zero rated supply tariff is 0% by exemption notification. say- Basic essentials are Nil rated and supplies to SEZ are notified as exempted so no tax.

Section 16 of IGST Act clearly mentioned , but to clarify you Nil Rated Supply: Goods or services on which GST rate of 0% is applicable are called NIL rated goods or services. Supply of any of these goods or Services is a nil rated supply under GST. Admissibility of Input: NO Input Tax Credit available in case NIL rate supplies Eg: Supply of grains, salt, jaggery etc (Essential Supplies are mostly covered under this classification) â?¢ Zero Rated Supply: Supplies made overseas and to Special Economic Zones (SEZs) or SEZ Developers come under the zero-rated supplies. This supply attracts a GST of 0%. Admissibility of Input: Yes, Input tax credit can be availed. Eg: Export of Goods & Services to foreign countries. Supply of Goods to SEZ Developers / SEZ Entities. (To incentivise Export entities to get foreign exchange by exporting the goods/services to abroad) Also exemption need not be always through notification may be through other modes also like order in gazette..
