Region of eastern India (6)

I believe the answer is:

bengal

(Other definitions for bengal that I've seen before include "The Indian tiger is a gal, Ben" , "... Bay area" , "region of India" , "Bay of - is E. of India" , "found in part of subcontinent" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
