I'm a  newbie on splunk, trying the basic thing but didn't find any solution. Reaching out if I get the direction/solution.

I have the search results with userid using the query. Lookup file(master_users) has all users with column name userid.  I want tonly those userids which are in lookup but not in my search result. 

Tried multiple options but didn't find the right solution.

Assuming your lookup has another field other than userid which is not in your first search e.g. role, then you do lookup with userid and add where isnotnull(role)
