A module is said to be ${\pi}$-extending provided that every projection invariant submodule is essential in a direct summand of the module. In this article, we focus on the class of modules having the ${\pi}$-extending property by looking at the singularity of quotient submodules. By doing so, we provide counterexamples, using hypersurfaces in projective spaces over complex numbers, to show that being generalized ${\pi}$-extending is not inherited by direct summands. Moreover, it is shown that the direct sums of generalized ${\pi}$-extending modules are generalized ${\pi}$-extending.
