I investigated: This issue already exists with the old fonts currently live on Google.
Microsoft’s shapers are known to show different results for Indic scripts, sadly. It's a good idea to incorporate that into the current update. I'm looking for a solution.

I've revisited this issue and found no incorrect rendering in Edge 106 (107 is the latest as of now) on Windows 10 with the version 2.000 of Eczar as it is currently served by Google Fonts.

Since no software versions were given for the above screenshots, I must conclude that they stem from older software and have meanwhile disappeared. I will close Google Fonts’ own issue about this. Please re-raise this issue with Google Fonts again if the problem persists.

Hey, I've had this issue before, it was caused by a weird interaction between Word's Indic shaper and the aalt feature. Removing the aalt feature fixed it for me :)
