The jewellers have cut gold prices by Tk 1,749 a bhori for the domestic market thanks to a drop in the rates of pure gold in the local market.

From tomorrow, the price of each bhori or 11.664 grams of 22-carat gold ornaments will be Tk 96,695, down from Tk 98,444 earlier.

The Bangladesh Jewellers Association (Bajus) took the decision today to adjust the prices with the international market, it said in a press release.

Earlier, in the middle of last month, the price of gold rose by Tk 1,283 per bhori.
