The price of gold in Bangladesh has been reduced by Tk 2,158 per bhori, with the new rate for 22-carat gold set at Tk 245,819, the Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) announced on Monday.

The revised price took immediate effect, BAJUS said in the morning.

The association attributed the adjustment to a decline in the price of tejabi gold (pure gold) in the local market and the overall market situation.

Under the new rates, 21-carat gold has been fixed at Tk 234,621 per bhori (11.664 grams), while 18-carat gold will cost Tk 201,146 per bhori. Gold of traditional method has been set at Tk 163,821 per bhori.

BAJUS last adjusted gold prices on April 1, when it raised the price by Tk 3,266 to set 22-carat gold at Tk 247,977 per bhori.

So far in 2026, gold prices have been revised 52 times, including 30 hikes and 22 reductions.

The association also reduced silver prices alongside gold. The price of 22-carat silver has been cut by Tk 175 to Tk 5,540 per bhori.

According to the new rates, 21-carat silver has been set at Tk 5,307 per bhori, 18-carat silver at Tk 4,549 per bhori, and traditional method silver at Tk 3,383 per bhori.

Silver prices have been adjusted 31 times so far this year, including 17 increases and 14 decreases, BAJUS added.
