Pherozeshah Mehta was one of the prominent figures involved in the formation of the Bombay Presidency Association in 1885.

The Bombay Presidency Association was founded in 1885 by leading intellectuals of Bombay such as Pherozeshah Mehta, K. T. Telang, and Badruddin Tyabji. It aimed to represent the interests of the people of the Bombay Presidency and was a significant regional political organization before the Indian National Congress was founded later the same year.

Dadabhai Naoroji was a key figure in the Indian national movement but was more associated with organizations like the East India Association and later the Indian National Congress. Allan Octavian Hume was the founder of the Indian National Congress (INC). M. G. Ranade was a prominent leader from Pune, closely associated with the Poona Sarvajanik Sabha. While all these individuals were national leaders, Pherozeshah Mehta was a direct founder of the Bombay Presidency Association.
