Can someone help me to understand how to design the input power to the MCU? Is there a certain requirement for ferrite beads and capacitors at the power supply input?

Abhishek,
Decoupling capacitor requirements are mentioned in the device datasheet. This is solely from the MCU perspective. Depending on what else is on your board, additional considerations may be warranted. Choice of what LDO (or DC-DC converter) to choose depends on the total current requirement of all the components on your board. Of course, you want to provide for at least 30-40% margin to account for instantaneous demands and to ensure the supply voltages to the MCU never violate the datasheet requirements. Since, much of the decisions are very design-specific, it is hard to generalize. If your application is space-based, you need to use components designed for that environment.
Thanks for your guidance in the issue. I had posted this as I was unable to find any documentation in the device's datasheet regarding to the decoupling capacitors. Can you please kindly direct me to the relevant resources which share this information with respect to the device?
