Provenance & notes
Mohammad Jahangir Alam (CIP), Chairman of GPH Group and MD of GPH Ispat, elected President and Dr Suman Chowdhury Secretary General at the 11th AGM, reported 14 Nov 2023 for the 2023-24 and 2024-25 council. He remained the named BSMA President in FY27 pre-budget coverage (Apr 2026); unofficial LinkedIn posts in late 2025 referred to a 2025-2026/2026-2027 term but no news source confirmed a fresh election, so president_since reflects the verified 2023 election date. Founding year and member count not confirmed from a primary source, left null.
