Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1877/D-299K=1430)

Both the takbeers before and after Sajdah Tilawah are sunnah not wajib.

هكذا في المراقي ص 498 وكيفيتها أن يسجد سجدة واحدة بين تكبيرتين تكبيرة للوضع، و تكبيرة للرفع وهما سنتان, كذا قال في مبسوط فخر الاسلام التكبير ليس بواجب و صححه في البدائع ...

(2) وتسبيحها مثل الصلاتية سبحان ربي الأعلى ثلاثا و هو الأصح

Tasbeeh i.e. saying سبحان ربى الاعلى thrice is Sunnah. If one does sajdah tilawah in farz prayer, he should say the tasbeeh thrice. And if one is doing sajdah tilawah in nafil salah or doing sajdah tilawah individually then besides سبحان ربى الاعلى it is better to say other dua which is mentioned in hadith, i.e.

أللهم اكتب لي عندك بها أجراً و ضع عني بها وزراً واجعلها لي عندك ذخراً و تقبلها مني كما تقبلتها من داؤد. (ترمذي شريف)

(3) Yes, it is sunnah to say takbeer while standing as well.
