U+11450 "𑑐" Newa Digit Zero is a numeral used in the Newa script, which is historically employed to write the Nepal Bhasa language, primarily in the Kathmandu Valley. This character represents the numerical value zero and is part of a larger set of decimal digits encoded in the Newa block, which was added to Unicode in 2016 as part of version 9.0.
