Would scores from distance courses done after graduation be taken for MBA entrance? Which grade is considered: distance or regular?

If a student does a graduation in normal college and secures say 70% and then he does some distance courses and secures say 80%. Which marks would be accepted in the MBA eligibility? I've heard that distance courses are equally valid. Is there a difference between DL and IGNOU?
