Tirhuta Letter La

𑒪 is the Tirhuta (also called Mithilakshar) letter for the “la” sound in Maithili. Tirhuta developed from the Brahmic family, a group of older South Asian writing systems, and was used for handwritten Maithili texts, including religious and ceremonial writing, before the Devanagari script became dominant.

Why does 𑒪 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
