અઃ is the visarga, a special diacritical mark in Gujarati (and Sanskrit-based scripts) that adds a soft, breathy "h" sound after the vowel, typically અ. It often appears in Sanskrit-origin words and classical or religious contexts. While it's not used often in everyday Gujarati, it holds importance in recitations, chants, and scholarly writing.
