This paper concerns with a steady MHD boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid over a vertical permeable stretching surface with variable stream conditions. The transport model includes the effect of Brownian motion with thermophoresis in presence of chemical reaction and thermal radiation. The group theoretic method is used to find the symmetries of the governing partial differential equations. The reduced equations are solved numerically by employing a fourth order Runge-Kutta method and Shooting techniques to predict the heat and mass transfer characteristics of the nanofluid flow. Numerical results are presented through graphs and tables for several sets of values of the involved parameters of the problem and discussed in details from the physical point of view
