Hi Sudhirn,
The following fields are available on the Lead object and should help you identify conditions when the Lead is converted:

Lead.IsConverted
Lead.ConvertedAccountId
Lead.ConvertedContactId
Lead.ConvertedOpportunityId
Hope that helps.

Hi,

You can write a condtion in trigger it self by which you code will not execute that part which you don't want.
  
To check if a Lead has been converted and do custom lead conversion logic, the best home for such is the LeadAfter trigger, where you can check

If (trigger.isUpdate && Lead.IsConverted && !trigger.oldmap.get(lead.id).IsConverted)
//do your stuff
-Thanks
