We have developed the model by considering the MIT bag model EOS and a particular ansatz for the metric function $ g_{rr}$ proposed by Finch and Skea \cite{FS}. Our model is free from central singularity and satisfied all the physical requirements for the acceptability of the model. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1410.1499v1
