Gold prices fall after hitting record highs

Gold prices have declined after hitting an all-time high in the country’s history, with 22-carat gold falling by Tk 3,149.

Now, the price of 22-carat gold fell by Tk 3,149 to Tk 2,49,318 a bhori, 21-carat gold by Tk 2,974 to Tk 2,38,004 a bhori, 18-carat by Tk 2,565 to Tk 2,04,003, and traditional method gold by Tk 2,216 to Tk 1,67,437, respectively.

The Bangladesh Jeweler’s Association (BAJUS) decided to lower gold prices on Thursday, January 22, attributing it to a decrease in the prices of pure gold in the local market.

The new prices will take effect from Friday, January 23, according to the BAJUS.

Earlier on Wednesday, January 21, gold prices were increased, raising the 22-carat gold price by Tk 8,339 to Tk 2,52,467 per bhori, which is the highest rise so far.
