Nirmal - I believe there are four:

    db_name
    control_file
    db_block_size
    compatibility  

This is from John Hibbard, a great Oracle Education instructor. But why not try for yourself? Save off your init.ora, then create a new init.ora with just the above parameters. If Oracle comes up, then remove parameters. If there is another parameter, Oracle will tell you.
