Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) on Wednesday raised the price of gold by Tk 2,216 per bhori, setting the new rate for 22-carat gold at Tk 2,50,193 per bhori, effective immediately.
In a morning statement, BAJUS said the price revision was made in light of the overall market situation following a rise in the price of pure (tejabi) gold in the local market.
Under the revised rates, 21-carat gold will be sold at Tk 2,38,820 per bhori, 18-carat at Tk 2,04,703, and traditional-method gold at Tk 1,66,737 per bhori (1 bhori = 11.664 grams).
The last adjustment was made on the morning of April 9, when BAJUS had cut the price by Tk 4,432 per bhori, setting the 22-carat rate at Tk 2,47,977.
So far in 2026, gold prices in the domestic market have been revised 55 times; raised on 32 occasions and reduced on 23.
Alongside gold, BAJUS also raised silver prices on Wednesday, increasing the rate by Tk 350 per bhori. The new price of 22-carat silver has been fixed at Tk 6,065 per bhori.
