Gold Prices Rise Sharply Again

The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) has announced another significant increase in gold prices in the domestic market. Under the latest decision, the price of 22-carat gold has been raised by Tk 5,482 per bhori, taking the new rate to Tk 230,422 per bhori.

BAJUS disclosed the information in a notice issued on Monday morning (15 June). The revised prices came into effect from 10:00 a.m. on the same day.

According to the association, the price of pure gold in the local market has increased. Taking the overall market situation into consideration, BAJUS has therefore adjusted gold prices across all categories.

Under the new pricing structure, a bhori of 22-carat gold (11.664 grams) will cost Tk 230,422. The price of 21-carat gold has been fixed at Tk 219,983 per bhori, while 18-carat gold will be sold at Tk 188,549 per bhori. Gold produced under the traditional method has been priced at Tk 153,557 per bhori.

The latest adjustment follows another price revision made by BAJUS on 13 June. At that time, the organisation increased the price of 22-carat gold by Tk 6,590 per bhori, setting the rate at Tk 224,940.

The prices announced on 13 June were as follows:

The 22-carat category recorded an increase of Tk 5,482 per bhori, while 21-carat gold rose by Tk 5,249. The price of 18-carat gold increased by Tk 4,491, and gold sold under the traditional method became Tk 3,675 more expensive.
