In 2009, the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) organized the Bashundhara Club Cup Championship with District Football League champions outside Dhaka. Shuktara participated in the tournament as the 2008 Narayanganj First Division Football League champions and also became champions by defeating Feni Soccer Club 1–0. Its title triumph saw them being provided with Tk 3 lakhs along with entry to the country's first professional league, the Bangladesh Premier League. The club began its Premier League journey from the 2009–10 season, only to be relegated in its inaugural season. The Narayanganj Osmani Stadium, located near the clubhouse, was used as its home venue and hosted 12 professional league fixtures. They played 24 matches in the league, of which they won four. Following relegation, the club did not participate in the second-tier professional league, the Bangladesh Championship League since its establishment in 2012, citing financial difficulties.
