The difference is the grey icon represents a kotlin file whereas the blue one represents a kotlin class file.android studio makes it a class file if it finds a "class" keyword first after the import statements .Else it will make it as a Kotlin file. Since you didn't include your code here I go with my assumption that you didn't cleared the private ARG_PARAM1 statement thats automatically generated by android studio.Make sure to remove the auto generated code from android studio.

//import statements
// TODO: Rename parameter arguments, choose names that match
// the fragment initialization parameters, e.g. ARG_ITEM_NUMBER
private const val ARG_PARAM1 = "param1"
private const val ARG_PARAM2 = "param2"
BlankFragment.Kt(grey-kotlin file)
/**
 * A simple [Fragment] subclass.
 * Use the [BlankFragment.newInstance] factory method to
 * create an instance of this fragment.
 */
class BlankFragment : Fragment() {

BlankFragment.kt(blue-class file)

//import statements
class BlankFragment : Fragment() {

.kt are Kotlin files, when you create a fragment in new>fragment>fragment (blank), chose java as the source language.
