Yes, distance mode post graduation degree is accepted for various Ph.D entrance exams. Just try to perform well in the entrance exam and you will definitely get admission.

55% marks is the minimum requirement for Ph.D admission which you already have. Therefore, just try to qualify exams like NET/SET/GATE for getting admission in a top university.

You have completed post graduation degree from UGC recognized university with 60% marks, so you are eligible for Ph.D course. But you should qualify in UGC NET exam.

The educational qualification required for NET exam is masters degree from a recognized university with above 55% marks. 5% relaxation is given for SC/ST category candidates. Final year student are also eligible for NET exam.

There is no age criteria for NET exam but for JRF posts, your age should be below 28 years.
