My mama cat littered yesterday and usually she shits only in the box but today she did outside and her poop is soft and yellow in color whereas in general her poop is always brownish in color. Is it normal? Also we have been feeding her food which is yellow in color(Meow brand bonitto + Royal canine) Can that be the reason? Your response will be very much appreciated. Thanks

IF it is a new food to her then it could her body adjusting to the new food, which can cause the runs and change in color, not sure about going outside the box? Was the box clean? Some cats will not use a box if it is too dirty for their standards.....

You said she just had kittens. She could have retained the placenta (which means infection) or ate too much of it which can cause loose stools. If you just switched her food to the yellow food, that could certainly cause change of stool color as well.
As for the litter box issue, if she does have some sort of infection, she may not want to use the box or may not be able to hold it in long enough to get to the box. If she gave birth close to it or it's close to where her kittens are, she may not want to use it now.
If she keeps having loose yellow stools & especially if they are outside the litter box, she needs to go to the vet soon.
