Teleparallel gravity is a modified theory of gravity in which the Ricci scalar R of the Lagrangian is replaced by the general function of torsion scalar T in action. With that, cosmology in teleparallel gravity becomes profoundly simplified because it is a second-order theory. The article presents a complete cosmological scenario in f(T) gravity with , where
and
are model parameters. We present the profiles of energy density, pressure, and equation-of-state parameter. Next to this, we employ statefinder diagnostics to check deviation from the
CDM model as well as the nature of dark energy. Finally, we discuss the energy conditions to check the consistency of our model and observe that SEC violates in the present model supporting the acceleration of the universe as per present observation.
