Hi Bharath Ch,

You could copy the users in outlook distribution list and paste the users in SharePoint when adding new users in people and group in SharePoint.

For more detailed information, you could refer to the article below.

How to add members of a distribution list to your Windows SharePoint Services Web site. it also can work in SharePoint 2010.
