Hello,

<FormTemplate>
                                     <telerik:RadTextBox ID="txt_Amount_Edit" runat="server" Width="120px"
                                                Value='<%#Eval("Amount")%>' />
 <asp:Button ID="btnUpdate" Text='<%# (Container is GridEditFormInsertItem) ? "Insert" : "Update" %>'
                                    runat="server" CommandName='<%# (Container is GridEditFormInsertItem) ? "PerformInsert" : "Update" %>'>
                                </asp:Button>
                                <asp:Button ID="btnCancel" Text="Cancel" runat="server" CausesValidation="False"
                                    CommandName="Cancel"></asp:Button>

                           </FormTemplate>

OR

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                      <ItemTemplate>
                          <asp:Button ID="btnEdit" runat="server" CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit" />
                          <asp:Button ID="btnSave" runat="server" CommandName="Update" Text="Update" Visible="false" />
                          <asp:Button ID="btnCancel" runat="server" CommandName="Cancel" Text="Cancel" Visible="false" />
                      </ItemTemplate>
                  </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
       {
           if (item.Edit)
           {
               item.FindControl("btnEdit").Visible = false;
               item.FindControl("btnSave").Visible = true;
               item.FindControl("btnCancel").Visible = true;
           }
           else
           {
               item.FindControl("btnEdit").Visible = true;
               item.FindControl("btnSave").Visible = false;
               item.FindControl("btnCancel").Visible = false;
           }
       }
   }
