KGP = Karat Gold Plated
KT = Carat

WikiAnswers has an answer to your question.

24KGP (24kt Gold-Plated) Jewelry is almost always plated on a base metal and is very shiny orange-ish color and relatively light in weight.

24KT (Pure Gold) Jewelry is "always" very very heavy in weight (in you hand ) and very bendable if not to thick.

I have a 24KT gold ring and it is very soft and bendable - in fact, so bendable that it's a bit of a pain because it's been bent out of shape.
