The Bangladesh Jewellers' Association pricing committee signed off on this after meeting up, and it comes right after they already bumped prices by over 3,000 taka just a couple of days earlier. The 22-carat stuff will run you 18,610 taka per gram, while 21-carat sits at 17,765. Traditional gold got priced at 12,680 per gram. Silver stayed put, though, with 22-carat holding at 392 taka per gram. People buying this stuff also have to cough up an extra 5 percent VAT from the government, plus at least 6 percent for the making charge, which can go higher depending on how fancy the design gets.
