At the beginning of January this year, the central bank increased the exchange rate of the dollar by Tk0.20 to Tk86.

On March 23, taka weakened by Tk0.20 and fixed exchange rate at Tk86.20. On April 27, it was devalued by another Tk0.25. Then the exchange rate of per dollar stood at Tk86.45. On May 9, the exchange rate of taka was devalued by Tk0.25 to and fixed it to Tk86.70.
