  We have investigated the accelerating behaviour of the universe in $f(Q,T)$
gravity in an isotropic and homogeneous space-time. We have initially derive
the dynamical parameters in the general form of $f(Q,T)=\alpha Q^{m}+\beta T$
[Xu et al., Eur. Phys. J. C, \textbf{79}, 708 (2019)] and then split it into
two cases (i) one with $m=1$ and the (ii) other with $\beta=0$. In the first
case, it reduces to the linear form of the functional $f(Q,T)$ and second case
leads to the higher power of the nonmetricity $Q$. In an assumed form of the
hyperbolic scale factor, the models are constructed and its evolutionary
behaviours are studied. The geometrical parameters as well the equation of
state parameter are obtained and found to be in the preferred range of the
cosmological observations. Marginal variation has been noticed in the behaviour
of $\omega$ and $\omega_{eff}$ at present time. The violation of strong energy
conditions in both the cases are shown. The dynamical system analysis for the
models has been performed.
