Fitra fixes minimum at Tk 70 Bangladesh

Fitra, a charity donation by well-off Muslims at the end of Ramadan, has been fixed at a minimum of Tk 70 per person this year.

The Islamic Foundation decided on the donation rates at a meeting on Wednesday, said Baitul Mukarram spokesperson Muhammad Nizamuddin.

The maximum rate of Fitra has been set at Tk 2,310 per person this year taking into account the market prices of flour, dates and other essential items, he said.

Last year, the minimum Fitra rate was Tk 65 and maximum at Tk1,980 per person.
