Also, ADE is displaying boxes for the title and author as well.... I take this to mean that the font embedding has worked but since ADE does not natively support Bangla (I confirmed this earlier by testing without embedded fonts but having the font installed on my system), the TOC is displaying incorrectly.
It’s not ideal, but after you create your TOC you could add one in HTML. In Sigil...Tools | Table Of Contents | Create HTML Table Of Contents. This will insert a page of links into your epub which you can format like any other text.

The ‘virtual’ TOC depends on the system fonts on the device so there’s not much you can practically do about that.
