To achieve this aim, the research firstly develops a conceptual framework to understand the concept of conversion as part of the conservation of heritage buildings and identifies the types of impacts it creates. The framework is then applied to three case studies selected from different parts of Rajasthan in order to identify and understand the key economic impacts created by the conversion of heritage buildings into luxury hotels in the context of Rajasthan. This research adopts a methodological strategy, which involves in-depth case study analysis along with analysis of published documents and semi-structured interviews. The findings help in identifying the key economic impacts that have been created by these case studies thus achieving the aim.
