Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally do not form compounds under normal conditions.

Why the helium is not included in noble gases group?

Helium is not included in the noble gases group because it does not exhibit the full range of characteristics typically associated with noble gases. While helium is chemically inert like noble gases, it has certain properties that set it apart, such as a lower boiling point and lack of electron shell completions like the other noble gases.
