Following the latest adjustment, the price of 22-carat gold has been fixed at Tk2,77,428 per bhori, according to a notification issued by Bajus.
Bajus said the new rate had been determined in view of an increase in the price of pure gold (tejabi gold) in the local market and the overall market situation.
