The price of gold has been reduced once again in the domestic market of Bangladesh. The price of good quality gold (22-carat) has been slashed by Tk 1,038 per bhori (11.664 grams).
Effective from tomorrow (Tuesday), the new price for one bhori of 22-carat gold will be Tk 2,04,283 across the country.
The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) announced the gold price reduction in a press release issued late Monday night.
