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.
Would you please mention that exemption notification number which mentioning zero rated supplies for the reference.

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..
