Gold prices in Bangladesh have declined significantly, with the rate of 22-carat gold reduced by Tk 3,266 per bhori, according to Bangladesh Jeweller’s Association (BAJUS).

In a notice issued on Thursday, BAJUS said the price cut was driven by a fall in the cost of pure gold in the local market, along with overall market conditions.

Under the new rates, 22-carat gold now stands at Tk 246,927 per bhori (11.664 grams). The price of 21-carat gold has been lowered by Tk 3,149 to Tk 235,671 per bhori, while 18-carat gold has dropped by Tk 2,683 to Tk 202,020 per bhori. Gold produced under the traditional method has been reduced by Tk 2,216, bringing its price to Tk 164,521 per bhori.

Previously, on April 15, BAJUS had raised the price of 22-carat gold by Tk 2,216 per bhori, setting it at Tk 250,193.

So far in 2026, gold prices in Bangladesh have been revised 56 times, including 32 increases and 24 decreases, reflecting ongoing volatility in the market.

Silver prices have also declined alongside gold. The rate of 22-carat silver has been reduced by Tk 350 to Tk 5,715 per bhori.

Meanwhile, 21-carat silver is now priced at Tk 5,424 per bhori, and 18-carat silver at Tk 4,666 per bhori. Silver under the traditional method has been set at Tk 3,499 per bhori.

In total, silver prices have been adjusted 35 times in 2026 so far, with 19 increases and 16 decreases recorded in the domestic market.
