The Ghashful family feels immensely proud, honored, and delighted by the remarkable achievement of two of its esteemed members in the Council Election (2025–2027) of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB).
Suraiya Jannat Khan FCA, a respected member of Ghashful’s Advisory Committee, has been elected with the highest number of votes, and Zareen Mahmud Hosein FCA, a member of Ghashful’s General Body and former Treasurer, has also been elected as a Council Member.
Their prestigious accomplishment marks a historic honor for Ghashful, further enhancing the organization’s overall image and potential. On behalf of the entire Ghashful family, we extend our heartfelt congratulations and floral greetings to them.
It is especially noteworthy that Zareen Mahmud Hosein FCA’s mother, Parveen Mahmud FCA—a member of Ghashful’s Executive Committee—was elected in 2007 as the first female Council Member of ICAB with the highest number of votes. Later, in 2011, she made history again by becoming the first female President of ICAB—an extraordinary milestone in the history of the chartered accountancy profession across SAFA/SAARC countries.
The mother-daughter duo—Zareen Mahmud Hosein and Parveen Mahmud FCA—being involved in the leadership of ICAB stands as a rare and inspiring example of professional and familial pride. This not only symbolizes the excellence of women’s leadership but also serves as a beacon of inspiration for future generations.
The Ghashful family pays its sincere tribute to their success and wishes them continued good health, a bright future, and ever-growing achievements.
