You can check the compatibility on the Points Based Calculator. If it doesn't then you can send to NARIC for compatibility.

As far as I'm aware you get awarded the same degree regardless whether it is part time or full time, and with an institute like BITS I'm sure it will clear.

I agree with cheshiregoan that you would need to verify it in UKBA PBS calculator. Also, it wouldn't matter if degree was obtained full time / part time or distance learning. As long as degree and university are listed in calculator you would be safe.

Masters from BITS Pilani is recognised by PBS Calculator. One of my colleague done Masters from BITS Pilani and was granted Tier1. But check in PBS Calculator as it is being naughty at times.
