Gold price going through the roof, Tk 124,501 a bhori now

Gold prices in Bangladesh have hit a historic high of Tk 124,501 per bhori (11.664 grams), surpassing the previous record of Tk 122,985 set just a few days ago. The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (Bajus) has decided to implement the new rate effective immediately, citing an increase in pure gold prices in the local market. This sharp rise in gold prices is attributed to trends in the international market and volatility in domestic supply.
