Official Devanagari Code Range
The Unicode Consortium reserves the block U+0900 to U+097F for Devanagari. It is used to index vowels, consonants, numbers, and diacritics for languages like Nepali, Hindi, and Sanskrit.
Collation and Sorting
Unicode defines standard sorting regulations, enabling search engines and databases to collate Nepali words alphabetically, which was impossible with legacy ASCII codes.
