@KayaaKashyap yes, PFS group 24 appears to be supported on ASA 9.8, but with IKEv2 (not IKEv1).
ciscoasa(config)# show version
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.8(1)
Firepower Extensible Operating System Version 2.2(1.47)
Device Manager Version 7.8(1)
ciscoasa(config)# crypto map CMAP 1 set pfs ?
configure mode commands/options:
group1 D-H Group 1
group14 D-H Group 14 (Unsupported for IKEv1)
group19 D-H Group 19 (Unsupported for IKEv1)
group2 D-H Group 2
group20 D-H Group 20 (Unsupported for IKEv1)
group21 D-H Group 21 (Unsupported for IKEv1)

@KayaaKashyap 9.8 is so old not all the guides are on the official cisco website, 9.12 is the oldest version and it does support PFS group 24. I can fire up 9.8 in my lab at somepoint and confirm, if required.
Regardless, 9.8 is EOL and will have multiple vulnerabilities, I would recommend upgrading to a supported version.

If you can test it in your lab, it will be really helpful. Yes I agree it is EOL, we are planning to upgrade to NGFW FTDs.
