In the present article, a comprehensive analysis of megnetohydrodynamic (MHD) steady boundary layer flow have been discussed through the linear stretching surface. The effect of thermal radiation are also taken into account while fluid consists of nanoparticles with convective boundary conditions. The resulting expressions for temperature and nanoparticle equations are coupled. The simplified non-linear equations are tackled with the help of homotopy analysis method (HAM). Main objective of this article is to inspect the effects of emerging parameters which appears in solution. Interesting results are shown graphically. The dimensionless heat transfer rates and dimensionless concentration rate are also plotted against flow control parameters.
