Bangladesh's Gold Price Swings Again as BAJUS Cuts 22 Carat to Tk228,031, Just Four Days After Raising It
The Bangladesh Jewellers Association cut 22 carat gold by Tk3,266 a bhori on October 13 to Tk228,031, just four days after raising the same rate by Tk2,216. It is the latest swing in a price that has moved in both directions since late September, from Tk232,930 on September 26 to Tk231,297 on October 9 to Tk228,031 now. Silver was cut on the same schedule, with 22 carat silver down Tk117 a bhori to Tk4,199.
Gold Price in Bangladesh Swings Twice in a Week as Bajus Cuts, Then Hikes Rates
Bajus cut the price of 22-carat gold by Tk1,691 per bhori on October 5, then reversed course four days later with a Tk2,216 increase, leaving the metal at Tk2,31,297 per bhori as of October 10. The whiplash is nothing new this year, jewelers have revised rates more than 90 times since January, roughly one adjustment every two days, as local pure-gold costs track a volatile international bullion market and the taka-dollar rate. Even after the latest climb, the price sits well below the record Tk2,86,001 per bhori touched earlier in the year, though it is still running about 10.6 percent above where it stood in October 2025.
Gold Prices in Bangladesh Swing Twice in Three Days, Still Well Below January's Record
Bangladesh's gold price swung twice within three days this week, the Bangladesh Jewellers Association cutting 22 carat gold by Tk2,158 on September 28 and a further Tk2,216 the next day, before reversing the full second cut on September 30 to land right back at Tk2,30,772 per bhori. The whiplash is typical for a year that has already seen 119 official price revisions, 58 increases and 60 decreases, as domestic prices track a volatile international bullion market shaped by Federal Reserve expectations and Middle East tensions. Even after this week's rebound, the price remains more than Tk55,000 below January's record high of Tk2,86,001 per bhori. With wedding season underway and VAT and fabrication charges pushing real costs well above the quoted price, buyers are being advised to watch the BJA's daily notices rather than assume any single day's price will hold.
