Abstract: To shed light on the indirect search for new physics beyond the standard model, the long standing discrepancies between the theory and experiment mediated by FCNC $b\to s \ell \ell$ quark level transitions set an ideal testing ground. Though the very recent measurements of $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ are consistent with the standard model, still the excitements remain on the measurements of LHCb experiment with the observables $\mathcal{B} (B_s \to \phi \mu ^+ \mu ^-)$ which has deviations at the level of $3.6 \sigma$. Additionally, standard deviation of $\sim 3.3 \sigma$ and $1.2 \sigma$, respectively for $P_5^{\prime}$ in $B \to K^* \mu ^+ \mu ^-$ and the branching ratio in $B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ processes are observed. Inspired by these discrepancies, we work out the constraints on the new physics coupling parameters in the presence of a non-universal $Z'$ model. We then probe the exclusive leptonic decay channels $ B_s \to \ell \ell^{\prime}$, $B_{(s)} \to (K^{(*)}, \phi, f_2^{\prime}, K_2^*) \ell \ell ^{\prime}$ induced by the neutral current transition $b\to s \ell \ell^{\prime}$. We find that the $q^2$ variation of the observables, such as, branching ratio, forward-backward asymmetry, lepton polarization asymmetry, and the very sensible observable, so called non-universality observables for LFV decays display the sensitivity of new physics. In this analysis. we estimate above mentioned observables that could shed light on the window of new physics in the near future.
