Unicode Version 17.0
𑅐
U+11150 "𑅐" Mahajani Letter A is a character from the Mahajani script, which was historically used for writing the Marwari, Hindi, and Punjabi languages in parts of North India, particularly for mercantile and accounting purposes. This specific character represents the vowel sound "a" as found in the word "about" and is the first letter of the Mahajani abugida, functioning as an inherent vowel carrier in the script. The character belongs to the Mahajani block, encoded in Unicode version 7.0 in 2014, and is visually distinct with a simple, rounded form typical of the script's cursive style. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent this historical writing system for academic and cultural purposes.
