Hi Ranbir,
Kanchenjunga and Karakoram both known as K2 but there is difference between both. KaraKoram known as K2 (Godwin Asuten) is in Pakistan/China geographially, has an altitude of 28250 ft or 8611 meter. And, Kanchenjunga (K2) is the highest mountain peak in India/Nepal, has an altitude of 8,586 metres (28,169 feet).
I think now your query has been solved.
Regards
