A finite group \(G\) is a \(D_\pi\)-group for some set \(\pi\) of primes if the maximal \(\pi\)-subgroups of \(G\) are all conjugate. Assume that every non-Abelian composition factor of the \(D_\pi\)-group \(G\) is isomorphic either to an alternating group, or to one of the sporadic groups, or to a simple group of Lie type over a field whose characteristic belongs to \(\pi\). The author proves that an extension of \(G\) by an arbitrary \(D_\pi\)-group and every normal subgroup of \(G\) are \(D_\pi\)-groups. This gives partial answers to Questions 3.62 and 13.33 from The Kourovka notebook [\textit{V. D. Mazurov} (ed.) and \textit{E. I. Khukhro} (ed.), The Kourovka notebook, Unsolved problems in group theory, Institute of Mathematics, Novosibirsk (2002; Zbl 0999.20002)]. Also, he describes all \(D_\pi\)-groups whose composition factors are isomorphic to alternating, sporadic, and Lie-type groups whose characteristics belong to \(\pi\). Besides, he brings to closed form the description of Hall subgroups in sporadic groups, initiated by \textit{F. Gross} [in Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 52, 464-494 (1986; Zbl 0559.20014), Rocky Mt. J. Math. 23, No. 2, 569-591 (1993; Zbl 0822.20021), and Math. Z. 220, No. 3, 317-336 (1995; Zbl 0852.20014)].
