    Hi @Suchethanath Ravindranath ,
    Per my research, your requirement cannot be realized at present because SharePoint Online does not provide REST API to convert .ppt to .pdf.

    As an alternative, I suggest you to use 3rd party tools to achieve what you want.
    https://www.muhimbi.com/Home

    If you would like to integrate with the Muhimbi PDF Converter for SharePoint Online from your own App or code then you have the following options:
    Use our REST based API from C#, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python and other languages"

    While Microsoft supports and encourages open-source software development, it does not provide technical support for the softwares from third parties, nor does it guarantee that the software will work as described.
