Through this article, we presented a comparative study for the MHD non- Newtonian fluid flow past a stretching sheet using Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model. The flow equations and the related convective boundary conditions have been altered as dimensionless ODEs by suitable similarity transformations. Further, these are resolved by employing fourth order Runge-Kutta method along with shooting technique. The influence of all flow regulating parameters on velocity, thermal and mass diffusive boundary layers are perceived through graphs. Also the variation in skin friction, mass and heat transfer coefficients for the same parameters are perceived via numerical values. The velocity of the flow past a linear stretching sheet is higher than that of the flow past a non-linear stretching sheet. But heat transfer performance in the flow via non-linear surface is better than that of flow via linear surface.
