Tariq Huque, Rumana BRAC Institute of Governance and Development Standard of living Tobacco consumption Taxation This article was published in Tobacco Control [©2012 Published by 2021, BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.] and the definite version is available at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/tobaccocontrol-2020-056297 The Article's website is at: https://tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/early/2021/04/01/tobaccocontrol-2020-056297 Tobacco tax increase is considered as one of the most effective means to reduce tobacco consumption and its consequences. An increase in taxes, which results in an increase in the price of tobacco products, reduces consumption. Historically, a number of studies estimated the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price—the price elasticity of demand—of tobacco products in Bangladesh. However, the government’s stronger commitment to reducing tobacco use, rising standard of living, rapidly changing cultural norms due to globalisation, and the substantial fall in tobacco use seen in GATS 2017 necessitate an updated measure of price elasticity of tobacco use, which will allow for more accurate answers to questions of tobacco tax policy in the country. This study endeavours to fill this gap in the literature on demand for tobacco products in Bangladesh.
