Bangladesh Jewellers Association (BAJUS) has reduced gold prices again, cutting the price of 22-carat gold by Tk 2,216 per bhori to Tk 228,556 including VAT.<\/p>\n
In a notice issued on Tuesday, BAJUS said the revised prices came into effect at 10:00am the same day.<\/p>\n
According to the notice, the price adjustment followed a decline in the price of pure gold in the local market.<\/p>\n
Under the new rates, 22-carat gold costs Tk 228,556 per bhori (11.664 grams), while 21-carat gold is priced at Tk 218,292, 18-carat gold at Tk 187,440 and traditional-method gold at Tk 153,148 per bhori, including VAT.<\/p>\n
BAJUS said the prices would remain effective at all jewellery shops until further notice. Making charges will vary depending on the design of the ornaments.<\/p>\n
As VAT is included in the selling prices of gold and silver jewellery, customers cannot be charged VAT separately.<\/p>\n
The association’s existing rules on exchanging and purchasing ornaments, excluding applicable VAT, making charges and stone costs, will remain in force.<\/p>\n
Earlier, on September 28, BAJUS reduced the price of 22-carat gold by Tk 2,158 per bhori to Tk 230,772, including VAT.<\/p>\n
With the latest adjustment, gold prices have been revised 119 times in the domestic market so far this year, with 58 increases, 60 reductions and one VAT adjustment.<\/p>\n
Alongside gold, BAJUS has also reduced silver prices by Tk 175 per bhori, setting the price of 22-carat silver at Tk 4,316, including VAT.<\/p>\n
Under the revised rates, 21-carat silver costs Tk 4,141 per bhori, 18-carat silver Tk 3,558 and traditional-method silver Tk 2,683.<\/p>\n
Silver prices have been adjusted 73 times in the domestic market so far this year, with 36 increases and 37 reductions.<\/p>\n
