Hi Bhanu,

Please find the required trigger code below: 
trigger createOpp on Lead (after update){
	List<Opportunity> newOppList = new List<Opportunity>();
	
	for(Lead ld : trigger.new){
		if(ld.LeadSource != trigger.oldMap.get(ld.Id).LeadSource && LeadSource == 'email'){
			Opportunity opp = new Opportunity();
			opp.Name = 'New Opp';
			opp.StageName = 'Email Lead';
			opp.ClosedDate = Date.today();
			//Enter other fields here
			newOppList.add(opp);
		}
	}
	if(newOppList.size() > 0){
		insert newOppList;
	}
}

Please let me know if you need any further help or information on this.

		if(ld.LeadSource != trigger.oldMap.get(ld.Id).LeadSource && ld.LeadSource == 'email'){
			Opportunity opp = new Opportunity();
			opp.Name = 'New Opp';
			opp.StageName = 'Email Lead';
			opp.ClosedDate = Date.today();
