Public organizations and non-commercial use?

The essence of the issue is painfully simple, there are budgetary institutions that, according to Russian law, are considered non-profit. There is software that is distributed under a dual licensing system, for non-commercial, free of charge for an organization, respectively, under a license.
Here, in fact, the dilemma is whether it is legal to install such software on budget-state institutions. I doubt it because:

  1. The license agreement does not clearly state that there are non-profit organizations, and they don’t care about Russian legislation
  2. In our legislation, there is also no concept of non-commercial use, and in international laws, non-commercial activities may be different, that is, our budgetary organizations do not fall into them.
  3. And in general, budgetary organizations work as state services, and the state already receives profits - or I'm wrong.

Explain my inaccuracies, who is savvy in the legal side of licensing. And then you put the program and then you prove to hell that you have a non-commercial activity
