@ganteymula, it's good news - you're on the waitlist and you will be up for getting an interview invite again with the Round 2 cycle in late Jan./early Feb. Many people in your shoes end up getting in - it's a drawn-out process but it could happen! We see it every year. You're totally still in the running. But it also means you'll need to move ahead w/ Round 2 apps at other schools if you're determined to be headed to bschool in the fall (just as an insurance policy).
This is a glass-half-full situation - but you're also in a bit of limbo for many months. Congrats that your app is still alive at HBS!!

I was in the same boat around this time last year. Got an invite Round 2 and was admitted. Hang in there and focus on your other apps...It will all work out in the end (if not at HBS, then at some other AMAZING school)
