Admission in Harvard depends on your drive and passion for certain things. While CGPA, work experience, and GRE score matters, they would be also interested in knowing more about your research skills and goals for future. So choose your course first, see their basic requirements and then apply.
All the best.

It is hard to say especially for business schools like Stanford or Harvard which are two of the world's most selective universities. Evaluations are done holistically and you must build your profile to fit into these schools. A poor performance in UG will not bar you from getting admitted into these schools if you have the right attitude. Yes, you must work very hard to outshine, a brilliant performance in your PG will not guarantee an admission, you will also require a quality work experience and demonstrate high-level leadership skills which again will not guarantee an admission unless you know why so badly you want to get into these

To get into Harvard, your UG result is not enough. Harvard is one of the top business schools, so when you try to get admission, they not only analyze your UG marks, they see a whole picture of you.
For example:
1. The school you studied.
2. The curricular activities, which you have taken. (Essay competition, your participation in essay writing and speech competitions).
3. The college you studied.
You will have a better chance, if you are a medalist from IIT and a you need to have really high score in GMAT and any one of the English proficiency language exams.

You need to decide the program and need to apply online through their application link. Check the admission requirements of the university for that program and then go ahead.

Harvard is the best option. But if I ever have a situation like this then I will choose IIT because only India is producing quality engineers every year more than any country. So there should be some reason behind why all the big companies hire IITians and Indians at good posts.
Just think about this as well while making any decision.

Higher the scores, better are your chances. The high score will not guarantee you the admissions into Harvard. Focus on improving your overall profile. Which grade are you in?

An extraordinary profile - good academic track record, high GMAT or GRE scores, substantial work experience and a number of extra curricular activities to be considered for Harvard, one of the top 3 business schools in the world. Scholarships are for stellar performers. So, there is no process, if you are fit for Harvard, you will be in. For formal requirements and process it is better you check the business school website for clarity on the type of students they admit and learn about the selection process.
