From what I have deduced, I will need to have an authentication step when the application is launched. Is that right?

No; you need to have an authentication step before you launch the privileged task.


Is there a way that authentication at launch can be avoided e.g. authentication at install gives the application permission thereafter????

Yes, but please don't do that. Doing something like that is a security hole waiting to be exploited. Just use Authorization Services.
