The organization cut rates by Tk1,890 per bhori to Tk1,92,969. BAJUS had set the previous record high at Tk1,94,859 per bhori on September 24. These new rates become effective Sunday. Different carat grades received new pricing from the committee. Twenty-two carat gold sells at Tk16,544 per gram while 21-carat costs Tk15,792. Eighteen-carat gold reaches Tk13,536 per gram and traditional gold sits at Tk11,235. Silver prices remain at previous levels. Customers pay extra fees beyond base gold prices under regulations. The government requires 5 percent value-added tax on purchases. BAJUS sets minimum making charges at 6 percent. These charges may increase based on design complexity and quality. [/QUOTE]
