Gold prices see another sharp drop in Bangladesh

The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) has announced another reduction in gold prices in the local market. Under the latest adjustment, the price of 22-carat gold has been reduced by Tk 6,591 per bhori, bringing the new rate to Tk 222,782 per bhori.

In a statement issued on Wednesday morning (June 10), BAJUS said the decision was taken following a decline in the price of pure (acid-tested) gold in the local market. The new prices took effect from 10:00 a.m. on the same day.

According to the revised price list, a bhori (11.664 grams) of 22-carat gold will now cost Tk 222,782. The price of 21-carat gold has been set at Tk 212,635 per bhori, while 18-carat gold will be sold at Tk 182,250 per bhori. Gold produced under the traditional method has been priced at Tk 148,424 per bhori.

BAJUS last adjusted gold prices on June 6, when it cut the price of 22-carat gold by Tk 5,482 per bhori, setting the rate at Tk 229,373.

Under the previous pricing structure, 21-carat gold was priced at Tk 218,933 per bhori, 18-carat gold at Tk 187,674 per bhori, and traditional-method gold at Tk 152,857 per bhori. Those rates also took effect at 10:00 a.m. on the day of the announcement.

According to BAJUS data, gold prices have been revised 72 times in Bangladesh so far this year, with 37 increases and 35 reductions.

In 2025, gold prices were adjusted a total of 93 times in the domestic market. During that year, prices were raised on 64 occasions and reduced 29 times.
