To resolve a firmware issue, your Mac is restoring its firmware. You might see a progress bar, after which your Mac should start up normally. ref: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202768
It sounds like the firmware update was interrupted or is failing to install—which could point to a hardware issue, either RAM, SSD, or logic board...
I would contact Apple directly and see what they recommend:
Call Customer Support (800) MY–APPLE (800–692–7753)
or on line https://getsupport.apple.com/

You can try a SafeBoot if it will allow you to proceed: SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
You can try First Aid from Recovery, if it will allow you to proceed: Recovery: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904
Boot into Internet Recovery (Option Command R) and from the dropdown menu: Utilities> Disk Utility> run the First Aid on your Macintosh HD (and the "Macintosh HD-Data" volume as well if Catalina/Big Sur) If errors are found and repaired, run again until no errors reported.

Beeps how— single tone, repeating tones, what...(?)
What exact Mac?
what macOS were you running before the upgrade attempt?
If your Mac starts up to an Apple logo or progress bar

1) beeps like 3 shorts beeps followed by 3 long beeps followed by 3 shorts beeps again.
2) Shows Logo and progress bar and finished the progress bar
3) goes blank for about 30 seconds and again goes back to Step 1
The steps are repeating infinetely
I tried using Cmd + R during startup but, it didn't work.
How can I revert back to previous OS?

The link doesn't describe my scenario of beeps: 3 shorts beeps , 3 long beeps and then 3 shorts beeps again.
Also, after the progress bar is complete, it is repeating.
I have not installed any memory. I was just upgrading the OS to BigSur.
please advise.
