The Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB) has hiked the prices of sugar and pulse by Tk 5 each, which would be sold at subsidised rates to one crore family cardholders.
The new price rate will be effective from tomorrow, the state-run agency said in a press release today.
From now on, one kg of sugar will cost Tk 60 instead of Tk 55 and one kg of pulses will cost Tk 70 instead of Tk 65.
However, the price of oil has been kept unchanged at Tk 110 per litre, it said.
According to TCB, the essential commodities will be sold to one crore cardholder families in all metropolitan cities, districts and upazilas across the country.
