Babu,
Yes murtuja is correct if we are able to Mount our database without controlfile.
but reread OP question.
OP lost all controlfiles + without controlfiles backup.
now can you mount your database without controlfile ???

Answer is NO.
that is why we need to follow below step.
1. conn with sys user
2. startup nomount
3. create controlfile
4. alter database open;
