Its president Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir said the party has accepted Dr Mahathir's decision to step down from the post.
Mahathir and his son, Mukhriz, were among 369 general election candidates who lost their deposits, after polling less than one-eighth of the votes cast in Langkawi and Jerlun respectively.
Dr Mahathir only obtained 4,566 votes in a five-cornered fight in Langkawi, with Perikatan Nasional winning the seat.
He left Umno in 2016 and co-founded Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu), which was part of the Pakatan Harapan coalition with PKR, DAP, Amanah and Upko.
He left Bersatu in 2020 after Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin led the party into forming a coalition government with PAS and Barisan Nasional. Mahathir co-founded Pejuang later that year.
