As long as you're referring to the rightmost group (starting with Helium) then yes, they are referred to as Noble/Inert gases.

Note: Many scientists will call it group 18 instead of group 8.

Which group of the periodic table do exceptionally inert gases belong and why are they inert?

Exceptionally inert gases belong to Group 18 (Noble gases) in the periodic table. They are inert because their outermost electron shells are full, making them stable and less likely to form chemical bonds with other elements. This full electron shell configuration results in low reactivity, hence their classification as inert gases.
