Bangladesh’s gold market saw a steep price cut on Thursday, with new rates taking effect from 10am.
The price of 22-carat gold has been cut by Tk4,432 per bhori, bringing it down to Tk247,977.
The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) announced the new gold price in a notice issued in the morning. It said the new rates were set considering the overall situation after a drop in the local market price of pure gold.

BAJUS last adjusted prices on 8 April, when the rate of 22-carat gold was raised by Tk6,590 to Tk252,409 per bhori. At that time, 21-carat gold was Tk240,920, 18-carat gold Tk206,511, and traditional gold Tk168,195 per bhori. Those rates also took effect from 10am that day.
