If you just want the filenames of files that do not contain your pattern, the code Ravinder suggested my be exactly what you want, but the grep -L option is an extension to the standards and will not be available on all systems.
All grep implementations i have seen so far have ":" (colon) as the separator between the matched contents and the filename (to be honest i don't know if this is required by the standards or just convention), so:
should provide a standards-conformant alternative to grep -L, no??

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
