Assuming that your wife was a Hindu at time of marriage, her conversion is a ground for divorce.
There are lot of intricate issues which need to be addressed to answer your query and you are therefore advised to consult a lawyer personally in your own interest.
You may need to make suitable arrangements for her parmanent alimony in terms of your standard of living; you may also need to make provision for the child's maintenance. The court will determine the amount after taking all factors into consideration.
