Gold prices in Bangladesh have climbed to an all-time high, with the Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) fixing the price of 22-carat gold (11.664 grams) at Tk 234,680 per bhori after raising it by Tk 2,625.
In a statement issued on Wednesday night (January 14, 2026), BAJUS said the new prices will come into effect from Thursday (January 15, 2026).
Under the revised rates, 21-carat gold will sell at Tk 224,007 per bhori, 18-carat gold at Tk 191,989 per bhori, while gold under the traditional method has been priced at Tk 157,231 per bhori.
BAJUS said the price adjustment was made considering the rise in the local market price of pure gold (tejaabi shona) and the overall market situation.
