How about Telugu? IIRC the original proposal for the Telugu fractions
submitted by Nagarjuna Venna has examples for the Telugu digits being
used as modifiers for the fractions or something.
And for Devanagari? The above same for the "generic North Indic
fractions" proposed by Anshuman Pandey.
I should warn you that both the above are only a hazy recollection and I
may be wrong about both... I daresay you can search for the proposals of
the above characters and you will find more.
As for the Tamil fractions which have been mentioned on this list
before, they do not involve the usage of digits in other than their
regular meanings.
