Every referencing system is different from the other. The Harvard referencing system is used for the citation of the source materials in case of scientific writing. Whereas APA developed by American Psychological Association, is used for education, social and behavioural science.

Ok. But how do I know which one to choose? And how to choose?

Sapna, Harvard is most commonly used formatting style. General rules include, title should be written in bold, italics and should be underlined. https://www.mendeley.com/guides/harvard-citation-guide will guide you about Harvard style.

You can refer https://www.verywellmind.com/apa-format-examples-tips-and-guidelines-4020415 to know about APA in detail. You can check https://library.brockport.edu/citing, https://subjectguides.library.american.edu/c.php?g=175008&p=1154150 to know which style is apt for your study.

I did visit the sites. They were of great help. I have decided to implement APA style. Thanks a lot sir!

I will strongly recommend you complete your entire research work and then get it formatted by expert formatters. I was drained and lost my temper when my entire research work got under scrutiny on grounds of formatting despite of getting praises for my work otherwise. Losing a grade for this, is seriously not something you can face. Try some here: https://www.chanakya-research.com/masters/dissertation-formatting-service/ APA6ED.COM
