Registeration not required if You deal only exempted goods...
No, Registration is not required when your are exclusively deal in exempted Goods, whether inter state or intra state.
Since No GST liablity arises need not take registration unless u r claiming GST for Inputs. Note. Refund can b collected for nil rated supply but not for exempt supply.
@ Mr.Heet Shah

For Supply of Nil rated Goods no ITC is available, and questions of refund will not arise at all as ITC itself is not available.

Is Nil rate and zero rate of supply different ?

Yes, both are different

Nil rated supply is a type of supply which attracts a GST at rate 0%(i.e.Nil)

Whereas, Supplies made overseas/outside India and to Special Economic Zones (SEZs) or SEZ Developers (i.e Export of Goods) come under the zero-rated supplies.
Persons making inter-state supply is liable to obtain registration.
@ Vijayprakash ji

Persons making inter-state supply is liable to obtain registration., But if person is exclusively deal in exempted Goods, than whether inter state or intra state..he is not liable for registration as exempt u/s 23 of CGST, Act.
As per Section 23 of CGST Act , the person engaged Exclusively in the Supply of goods or services or both that are not liable to tax or wholly Exempted under CGST & IGST Act is not required to obtain Registration.

So as per above Section , even though he is supplying Interstate is not required obtain Registration unless he is engaged in supplying Exempted goods or services.
