Dear Hempal Sir, Thank you for your response. I think the license* "Creative Commons-Attribution -NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License"* that you mentioned looks fine. It ensures the first three points that I would like to incorporate in the product. And yes, it seems legit that if someone wants to use it for commercial purpose, we can draft another agreement/contract after looking at their proposal and requirements.
Cheers!
