But supply glut has now put TCB in a fix with about 50 tons of onions stored at its Khulna warehouse. TCB officer Anisur Rahman said they have been selling two tonnes of onion every day at five points in Khulna at Tk 30 per kg. TCB trucks selling onions were absent at some points in the city on Thursday where they were usually seen. Last week, TCB slashed online onion prices to Tk 23 from Tk 36. Good quality onion costs Tk 40-45 per kg while the moderate quality product was selling for Tk 30.
