Explanation:

It is formed by the weathering of ancient crystalline and metamorphic rocks, particularly acid granites and gneisses, quartzitic rocks, and felspathic rocks. Chemically, red soil is siliceous and aluminous, with free quartz as sand, but is rich in potassium, ranging from sand to clay with the majority being loamy.

Answer:

Red soil is formed due to diffusion of iron in crystalline igneous and metamorphosis rock in areas of low rainfall in the eastern and southern part of the Deccan plateau.
