Gold prices in Bangladesh continued their upward trend, rising for the second consecutive day. The price of 22-carat gold increased by 5,482 taka per *bhori* (a traditional unit of weight, approximately 11.66 grams), reaching 230,422 taka per *bhori*. This marks a new record high for gold prices in the country. The price hike reflects global market trends and currency exchange rates, according to local gold traders. This latest increase impacts consumers and the jewellery industry alike. No immediate reason beyond market forces was cited for the continued rise. Further fluctuations are anticipated based on international gold market behaviour.
