    This can be done by importing Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint library.

    # Import Powerpoint Lib.
import clr
clr.AddReference("Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint")
import Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint as PowerPoint
# Create powerpoint application
powerpoint = PowerPoint.ApplicationClass()
powerpoint.Visible = True
# Add presentation to the application
presentation=powerpoint.Presentations.Add()
# Save the presentation
presentation.SaveAs(r"D:\Path\to\myppt.pptx", PowerPoint.PpSaveAsFileType.ppSaveAsDefault)
