Gold price soars Tk 6,590 per bhori in Bangladesh marketGold prices in Bangladesh surged sharply on Wednesday, with 22-carat gold rising by Tk 6,590 per bhori.

Bangladesh Jewellers Association (Bajus)  raised the price of gold in the domestic market, effective from 10:00am Wednesday.

Bajus attributed the hike to a rise in the price of pure (tejabi) gold in the local market. With the latest revision, the price of 22-carat gold now stands at Tk 2,52,409 per bhori.

Under the revised rates, 21-carat gold has gone up by Tk 6,299 to Tk 2,40,920 per bhori, while 18-carat gold has increased by Tk 5,365 to Tk 2,06,511 per bhori. The price of traditionally-processed (sanatan) gold has been adjusted upward by Tk 4,374 to Tk 1,68,195 per bhori.

The adjustment comes just two days after Bajus cut the price of premium gold by Tk 2,158 on April 6, which itself followed four consecutive rounds of increases totalling Tk 13,122 per bhori.

So far in 2026, gold prices in the domestic market have been revised 53 times raised on 31 occasions and reduced on 22.

Silver prices have also been revised upward alongside gold. The price of 22-carat silver has been increased by Tk 350 to Tk 5,890 per bhori.

Rates for 21-carat, 18-carat, and traditionally-processed silver have been set at Tk 5,599, Tk 4,782, and Tk 3,616 per bhori, respectively.

Silver prices have now been adjusted 32 times this year, with 18 increases and 14 reductions.
